Does anyone have the frequency for the Creek Nation Lighthorse repeater located at River Spirit Casino? The only one I see listed in the database is 166.275, which I believe (based on crappy reception in Jenks) is the Preston site. That freq is listed for both Tulsa and Okmulgee counties.

As far as I know, there is not a repeater at River Spirit Casino for Lighthorse Police. The repeater at Preston is the only repeater that covers Tulsa & Okmulgee Counties.
Now they may use the casino trunked system for ops in the casino.

Aren't they also on the OKWIN system as well?

Not that I am aware of. Last time I spoke with those who use the Lighthorse repeater, they wasn't going to go to OKWIN as it didn't provide coverage to the entirety of the Muskogee Creek Nation tribal jurisdiction. Mainly anything south of Okmulgee where OKWIN coverage is non-existent. (Hughes, McIntosh, & Okfuskee counties.)

Plus they where floored by the price that the state wanted to charge them to have talkgroups on the system.
Last time I heard, they was looking at putting in their own DMR multi site trunked system to cover their jurisdiction which would include their casinos. But that was about three years ago and it doesn't look like that has occurred.

Thanks for the info. I'll assume the person I was talking to was thinking about the casinos radios. Guess I need to find a better antenna.
