Im listening to the Nevada Highway Patrol here in Las Vegas and there is some chatter of a pursuit in Arizona that appears to be heading this way. The database shows DPS is still UHF analog, is there a repeater along US-93 near the AZ-NV state line that I can hear?

I know it's 5 hours after the fact, but you could try 460.475.
The CTCSS is 151.4 along the Arizona Strip (I-15, etc), and 100.0 everywhere else in Mohave County.

460.225 (100.0) Statewide
460.225 (151.4) State Tac
460.275 (151.4) CI 3
460.500 (151.4) CI 4

This is probably the closest AZ DPS District 1 repeater. Zoom out on the map in the link.

It is about 45 miles from the center of Las Vegas, but if you are in a good spot with an outdoor antenna you might hear it. Have it ready for the next pursuit. AZ DPS likes to pursue across whatever distance it takes to get the vehicle stopped.

Looks like its a low level repeater to cover US-93. Its a shame they didn't put it up on nearby Mt. Wilson, it would cover US-93 and the valleys. I'll still program the freqs in case I'm ever around Lake Mead. Thanks guys.
