slick and useful. Probably won't work out of the box with repeaterbook software (android) because he firmwared his interfaces to report something that normal ones do not and i couldn't be assed to reverse it.

I don't know that repeaterbook has anything to do with it actually, but there's android software that uses your GPS and a bluetooth module to control your VHF/UHF radios, you can use it to automatically change repeaters as you're driving or whatever - based on repeaterbook's database.

That software sounds cool, what's it called and where do I get it?

https://www.zbm2.com/BlueCAT/index.html is the hardware. the software is repeaterbook - there's a toggle in the app to use the blueCAT device - which is the one i never could find the time to reverse to figure out why i couldn't use any BT-Serial device!
