[chirp_devel] Repeaterbook and CHIRP support for outside of North America

[RB Admin]

If you have a geocoding engine you can send me that lat/long in decimal format and I can search on a radius. I can also do the geocoding on the fly on my end and convert for lat/long.

I can do a search for within any political boundary.

Think Europe. What would be the query to get all of the 2m and 440 repeaters out of London, England.

CHIRP already sends a query to Repeaterbook. It's just a URl that returns the data. Adding a couple of variables could add more functionality. 

Currently, only the US is enabled for import within CHIRP, but we are in many countries, so it could be really expanded.

What type of interface/fields would you recommend for a versatile search? Obviously limiting it to zipcode is not very versatile (but it was easy to implement).
