70 cm is listed, but 2m is not

Hello Michael

So you are saying the 145.270 repeater is not listed in the 2023 repeater book you got? That sounds strange as it does come up in the repeater book app on my phone. Perhaps a mistake was made in the printing of the book? Not sure how to get it fixed, but I guess we need to try and figure it out. The repeater is there and it works, so not sure what is up with that.

I've tried several times to send the page but groups io is not allowing a pdf or jpg

I see both repeaters (2m and 70cm) in the most current versions of the RepeaterBook apps for both iOS and Andriod. That said, there is an error that has been there for over a year now. The 2m VFW repeater still shows that it is Echolink capable (this is no longer true and the entry should be updated).

Cheers,

w0vfw @ groups.io is for plain text messages only. You can upload a certain number of attachments to the FILES section. part of the FREE service groups.io offers.

If the group wants to be able to add photo's, inbed pictures with text and use rich text formatting, a yearly fee must be paid.
Here is the information: link

THE ARRL relies on a pay subscription service as a database to their book publishing. They only update the book once a year. and therefore outdated the day it is available for sale. They live in the 19 or 20th century..
here is the complete skinny:

ARRL Repeater Directory
Corrections and Additions

Since 2017, the listings included in The Repeater Directory have been supplied by RFinder. RFinder offers an online subscription
service to its worldwide repeater database (sold separately). ARRL does not curate the listings included in the Repeater Directory.
We encourage frequency coordinators and repeater owners to review listings published in the annual Repeater Directory,
and to submit corrections directly to RFinder.
RFinder subscribers can search for, and request updates, to repeater listings there.
You can submit a request to add a repeater to the RFinder database

Repeaterbook.com is updated daily and is free. It allows various database searches and any web browser can connect.

THe ARRL just announced an ARRL repeater app for a fee and only for android phones..

I purchased the book to put in the truck. Something which would work without internet.
