Works great on the XV6700 with WM5. Nice job Lindsay!

Ditto. I'm using the same phone and WM5. Actually, I'm posting this using the very same Pocket PC.

The difficulty in the past has been navigation through the desktop friendly databases. Now that I can pretty much access all aspects of the site, I'll have to get a second cell battery to handle my constant browsing.

I tried using the mobile site today. I noticed that for Virginia, independant cities will not appear as a menu selection. It allows selections for counties. Cities like Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Richmond, etc will not appear in the selections and can't be viewed.

Still - a great asset to have. Great job

Works great on my Huckleberry 8800!

I made some changes in the login process for non-iPhone users which should help blackberry users... have a look and let me know.


Thanks, Lindsay... Much more useful when I'm on the road. Your hard work is greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Yes, I noticed this problem with Virginia as well. Virginia has about forty independent cities, which are completely separate from counties (i.e., not in any county). The cities should really be listed under the counties. (A workaround to the problem is to add any cities one is interested in to MyRR, where they will show up on RR Mobile.)

Lindsay, any chance of the cities getting added?

Thanks,
Dave

Works just dandy on both my 3G and Non 3G iPhones.. Bookmarked it when it came out and used it mobile the other day.. Handy little widget this is...

Although forum access would be a big plus, I just use Safari for that when I need it.

(I'm using the 1st generation iPhone.)

I think I've found a bug with RR Mobile, specifically with the My RR feature. When I click on some of the systems (Washington Metro, Spotsylvania County), it brings me to the county page with the same RR ID number. For example, the Washington Metro has SID 2721, but it brings me to Rockwall County (CTID 2721). The funny thing is, it doesn't do this all the time. Sometimes I'll click the Washington Metro system, and it will bring me to the proper system page.

Thanks,
Dave

I found the problem to this. The link was set to ctid, but the *box* was set to sid. So, it literally came down to whether or not you touched near the link within the box or the link itself ;-)

Should be ok now.

This was a bug.. nice catch!

Lindsay,

Another small bug with RadioReference Mobile. LTR system LCNs do not show the channel numbers next to the frequencies.

Thanks again for developing/maintaining RR Mobile--it's a great resource on the iPhone!
