Are you typing in a location or using location near me? If the latter, it’s possible your browser isn’t set with permission to use your location. That’s just a guess.

Guest Posted November 20 Report Posted November 20 Might want to try using the map. It’s much asker and give a clearer total picture of your surroundings. Quote
Billz Posted November 21 Report Posted November 21 I used the map to look at where repeaters are located near me. Quote
DONE Posted November 21 Report Posted November 21 While there has been a significant increase in GMRS license holders and repeaters in recent years. Not every corner of the US has a GMRS repeater. There is always a possibility that you are having issues with what you are doing with the search, it might be that there are simply no repeaters in your area. If you are willing to give a basic location of where you are, one of use can take a look and see if there are any repeaters that you just aren't seeing or if you don't have any coverage in that area.

Based on your location of Bristol, Pennsylvania, there are two that show up. "Tullytown 675", and "Burlington1". Both indicate coverage over the Bristol area. Quote

When that happens to me I click on the Advanced Search Settings and I always discover that there’s something there from a previous search, such as a state filter, which results in an empty result.

Also, don't forget to try turning on "stale" repeaters. Just because the info hasn't been updated in a year or more doesn't mean the repeater is down or no longer exists.

808Beachbum Posted November 21 Report Posted November 21 Well, apparently the Search function under the "Repeaters" tab uses different data than the Search function on the actual Map, under the "Map" tab. I've never used the Search under the Repeaters tab until someone mentioned something about "advanced search". Quote
