Yep, I added the search filter after the previous discussion here. Glad it's 
working for you :)

Yeah, I've thought about this, but the bands differ across the globe. Listing 
them all would be a chore, selecting more than one makes the interface complex 
and larger. I haven't moved on anything for this yet just because I can't think 
of the best way to represent it.

Out of curiosity, and I know this sounds strange, but.. why do you want to 
filter that way? I say that because I never just query a source and then dump 
all the results into my radio - I pick the one I'm looking for, or the ones in 
the area where I'm going. Also, almost everything in my area is 2m/70cm, so 
filtering out all but those would not change the list a whole lot. I guess 
maybe if you're looking for only 2m repeaters you might not want to see all the 
70cm ones?

Anyway, please do open a feature request and I'll do some more thinking. If 
other people have thoughts on this, let me know.
