I'm sorry, but I just don't have an answer or solution to this.
Is it because of how I'm wording it? I can try to find an example where you can personally do it yourself so you get a better understanding.

I've giving some consideration to bringing back tabs maybe in a 2.1 release. I'm not entirely pleased with how well the community is picking up the hamburger menu/icon etc. The hope here is to better support mobile devices, since the vast majority of the access to the site is from mobile devices now.
I like 2.0, it's a lot more mobile friendly, no question. But I'm old school and I access the site from a desktop browser 95% of the time, especially when I'm doing admin stuff. The hamburger menu is mobile friendly because it keeps the pages tidy, however most stuff now requires two clicks instead of one with the tabs in a desktop browser. I wouldn't mind seeing tabs return in some form in the future.

What would really be killer would be for the hamburger icon to appear on mobile devices, and tabs to appear in desktop browsers. Or two "styles" that users can choose from: condensed (hamburger) or "legacy" (tabs).

This is what I'm considering. The framework allows for this behavior, probably, I just need to code it.

HOWEVER, the land of unintended consequences will dictate that someone will be pissed off about the hamburger menu going away on their desktop and I'll have some knucklehead yelling at me that THE DATABASE IS EVEN WORSE NOW YOU SUK F U BTARDS!!111!

I know what he's referring to, and I noticed it myself a while back during the beta testing. If you hold the CTRL key down, then click one of the boxes in a grid, you were able to then drag the mouse pointer to select multiple boxes in a row/column for an easy copy/paste. With 2.0, dragging the mouse after clicking while holding down CTRL is ineffective...won't select anything other than the first box you clicked in.

It was extremely handy to grab multiple entries at the same time, especially if you wanted to excluded some columns, for example, while grabbing a few rows of other data.

*By "grid" I mean any group of frequencies or talkgroups within the same subcategory.

No, I just don't have a fix. It's possible that the new tables framework that we're using just doesn't support the behavior you a looking for.
Not to harp on it, but if the new DBA interface is using the same tables as the 2.0 public database...then I can confirm that the CTRL+drag mouse to select multiple cells trick works in our DBA Dashboard and Queue tables.

*Why did I refer to cells as "boxes" earlier? Brainfart lol

Are trunked reports broken? I'm getting a 200 with empty content when I go here (and the CSV equivalent): RadioReference.com

Caveat: I only subscribed to premium in the last hour, so if it's some sort of auth issue that could be it too… I've cleared all my RR cookies, but that didn't help.

Yes, this has been fixed now as of this morning.

Ahh that's acceptable. I figured it was an easy fix, not an entirely new framework lol.

Refer to my posts...there is a ticket in the system for the issue already. Whether it's actually fixable is another story.

What browser are you using, Firefox or some derivative?

I would like to see a search box for talk-groups. For instance, I'm on MPSCS and just received a non-familiar TG. I type it into the search and see if it comes up or possibly new? Yes, I know you can look at the pdf, but this would be a nice feature. My 2 cents...

Switch the talkgroup view from Grouped to All Talkgroups, at which point a Text Filter box will appear. Type the TGID (or anything else) into the box to filter the list in real time.

Yeah the latest Firefox. I only noticed it the other day when I was trying to select something like 30 frequencies

Yes, this seems to be a Firefox only "feature" and I'll have to test using that browser to see if I can resolve the problem.

I don't mean to disappoint you, but this won't be the highest priority in the land - but I do have a ticket open to look at it and I'll see what I can do.

Okay I'm having a problem with the new database. With the old database I can click on the license and it would populate a map show me the location that their license for. You can then click on that and then do a proximity search. The new database is not letting me do that on Android or Apple. This needs to be fixed or else radio reference is useless. I use that feature to find frequencies in the area that are not listed now I can't. Radio reference can you fix that please thank you

Would love to hear your feedback, reports of problems, and cool feature requests you have for the RRDB v2.0 release which was released to production on Sunday, May 15th, 2022


Current Known issues:
  • No ability to view input frequencies on agency pages Fixed 5/16 @ 9:50 AM CT
  • Agency FCC assigned callsigns aren't available
For now, at least for the next week or so, we'll make most functions that will normally be available only to premium subscribers to everyone as we gather feedback. Things like queries, filters etc will be then shortly available only to premium subscribers.

Thanks for your patience and feedback, look forward to to hearing from you:

PS: If you like it, please tell me so. If you don't like it/something etc, please professionally tell me so as well, and be cool about it.

PPS: No, there is no dark theme available.
Ok= I'm up to speed now. The listing of the TGID in numerical order is definitely a premium requirement now. Oh well. When gas goes below $3/gal, I'll see if I can afford the luxury.
