files for chirp
« on: January 14, 2016, 01:05:20 PM »
Hi Does anyone have access to repeaterbook account, or something else. 

I'm looking for chirp files for 3 locations in South Africa...  I don't have accounts anywhere.  The radio would be a Yaesu VX8-DR..   Want to take a radio for emergency use.  Will not have a computer with.

Locations;
Pretoria SA
Sodwana Bay SA
Louis Trichardt SA

Thanks in Advance

While the files are available via the phone app, you cannot access it via chirp or the web site without some kind of account, hence seeking someone with access to the files there or elsewhere.

I guess I found another way to do it, so thanks anyway.
