[chirp_users] RepeaterBook GMRS Queries!

[Dan Smith]

Hi All,

I'm excited that today's build includes support for querying RepeaterBook's GMRS database! Thanks to Garrett (RepeaterBook's owner), CHIRP users now have the ability to pull this data in as well. It works the same way as the other RepeaterBook queries, with searching, sorting by distance, and local caching.

Like CHIRP, RepeaterBook depends on volunteers to maintain the database and they are responsible for growing it into the extremely comprehensive and valuable resource that it is today. If you know of any GMRS activity in your area, I encourage you to pull up the query for your location and if you notice anything missing, help by submitting it for inclusion here:

I found one new open GMRS repeater in my local area that is missing, so I'll be doing the same today :)
