Help Logging In

If a user has a problem logging into Repeaterbook.com, it could be due to a password issue.

Please check and try the following suggestions to assist you when having problems logging in:

  1. Do a password reset for your account. The password reset page can be found here.
  2. Make sure the date and time on your computer are correct. If the date and time are off, it can cause cookie problems which can prevent login from occurring.
  3. If you are running Norton Internet, MacAfee, and especially CA's Firewall, please make sure they are configured to allow cookies from Repeaterbook.com.
  4. Make sure your browser is allowing cookies from Repeaterbook.com. Most browsers are configured by default to allow cookies, however, if you have been over-zealous on your security settings and changed the defaults you'll want to review your settings to make sure you are not blocking cookies from Repeaterbook.com.
  5. If you have checked all this - and you still are having a problem, you can contact support here.

Changing Your Username (call sign)

You can change your own username/call sign and other account settings here. You must use your amateur radio callsign as your username. Any accounts not utilizing an amateur radio call sign will be deleted. Amateur radio callsign change.

Invalid Token Error

Occasionally, users may also experience an invalid token error. This is due to the security settings within the Joomla framework that powers the RepeaterBook front end. Typically, we recommend following the on-screen instructions which recommend trying again. Just simply re-enter your call sign and password and, for most users, you will be admitted to the site.

This most commonly occurs when using multiple browsers or computers to access the site. For example, if you last logged in on your PC at home, and then attempt to log in at work, you may see the error. Same thing if you switch from a PC to a smartphone.
