I noticed quite a few repeaters are missing in the database. I'm only looking at King County, but of course I think it's true all over. Who updates these?

That was one point of this site, to provide a reliable list. The general rule for the database has been to include only things actually heard on the air, as compared to other sites which either copy from other lists or the FCC database. Going off to another thread on here, when people put unconfirmed things in the database they are asked to tag the entry with an asterisk. Its a simple but effective quality-control measure.

There are a few people on here who can do updates. Among them are Atomic Taco, Wilrobnson, T68, and me.

ok. I assume most of this list is up to date, I certainly am using 441.550 and it's not in the database :-)

You guys are doing great work!

Anytime you have something new for the database, please send a PM with the details (freq/PL/callsign/location) and we'll be happy to update it ASAP. New info is always greatly appreciated. In fact I wish more of it would come in ! Speaking of which, go to the Map Search and click on Yakima County. There are a lot of new listings. Joey has been kicking some serious butt in that area.

For future reference, Intercept does have a forum dedicated to Amateur Radio.

This reminds me of something FlashP mentioned quite some time ago. Perhaps we should have an option for people to click on so there is an easy way to send additions/updates via a web form or textbox. It would probably be more convenient to do it straight from the page rather than asking people to PM/email the information.
