161.460 Repeater Arizona

[N9JIG]

I am hearing what appears to be an AZRC (Arizona & California) repeater on 161.460 that I have never heard before.

I am 5 miles NW of the White Tanks and it appears AZRC has a license for a base on this at Smith Peak about 35 miles west of Wickenburg and 50 miles NW of me.

Does anyone know if this is replacing a Road channel or just repeating it?

Well, I did some legwork and it is indeed the Arizona and California. I was confused for a bit since they ID as ACR on their recorded detectors.

I took a ride out to Parker and confirmed it but as I was on the way I heard the radio installed talking about it.
