​FRDB is my hobby project which is dedicated for storing frequency information added by users. All information is freely accessible by everyone everywhere. FRDB suits for everyone from kids to adults and from radio hobby starters to experts. Especially since I accept and filter all adds made. You can research different frequencies anywhere and post them into FRDB, if you dont know what is a purpose of the frequency, others can comment frequency card and tell what they know. Users can report frequencies and ask deletion from admin anytime.

​Read this page guide and rules to avoid using FRDB in wrong way. I personally thank everyone who are part of FRDB

Rules

  • Accepted language: English. Avoid using other languages. If I can't understand for example description text, which I have to check out before accepting new card, I need to delete it.
  • No spam, no trolling, no un-acceptable behaviour or bad language. This service is available for kids too!
  • Try giving as much information on frequency adds as possible!
  • FRDB is now only dedicated for quality information.
  • By using FRDB you automaticly accept Nitramite EULA and these rules.

Guide for web app

Adding

When you go to add page on Web version or on Android App, remember these lines:
  • Set your nickname on settings.
  • Choose your default country.
  • Frequency is always given on three digits. Event if it is 14MHz --> 014 is correct value.
  • Always choose correct Category!
  • Give title that describes that frequency in best way.
  • Stream URL must always be .mp3 ending.
  • Separete tags with comma. Search function can handle tags on web version.
  • If add has stream, include stream in tags for easier searching.

Searching

Android version search is under construction and it's features are very limited.
Web version has much better searching possibilities.
  • Tags are not visible in search form but those are searchable on Search box. Use word like "stream" to find all frequencies which has stream capability.
  • Order searches by clicking row titles.
  • Rest might be self explanatory.

Settings


If you use cCleaner like products you will always lose settings on Web version.
  • Set your Nickname on settings to be able to comment and add frequencies with your "call sign"
  • Choose default country so it's always selected in add form. (Android included)

All required info is at the first bigger box and rest of the stuff is alternate information.

Frequency is a must needed information.
