RepeaterBook

Including multi-state results

Recipe

  1. Query each state that could be in your final distance (aka proximity) query
  2. Modify the last Chirp query to use latitude, longitude and distance (miles) - you'll still need to have a state selected but the cache will provide other state's results too
  3. Execute the distance query

Explanation

RepeaterBook has a distance based query called Proximity 2.0 that returns results from multiple states, Canada or Mexico but does not have an API with the same functionality. Using a multi-state query might trigger rate limiting by RepeaterBook. Chirp stores (caches) query results from previous queries. Instead of creating a new query Chirp will search the cache for the proximity results using longitude and latitude.
