Interactive map of the Bulgarian VHF and UHF amateur radio repeaters based on OpenStreetMap, Leaflet and Leaflet.markercluster.

Notes

Data source and client library

• Production data is served from the public API at https://api.varna.radio/
• The site consumes the API via the client library loaded from https://api.varna.radio/bgreps.js
• There is WEB interface to the repeaters DB at https://repeaters.varna.radio
• The app does not ship its own data; no data changes should be made in this repository. Please use the contact methods on the site for content updates.

Development notes

• The legacy JSON workflow (reps.json and an accompanying local client) has been retired. Any remaining historical files were moved to the legacy/ folder and are not used at runtime.
• The map also integrates optional terrain features via HeyWhatsThat.com (terrain profile images and contour tiles) when available.

Contributions

PRs with code improvements, moderate refactoring or new features are welcome. Please avoid introducing a runtime dependency on local JSON data—API and library usage should remain the primary data path.
