Here is the link to the ORSI website. ORSI (Oklahoma Repeater Society, Inc.) is the coordinating body for amateur radio repeaters in Oklahoma. The site has database listings for all the ham repeaters in Okla. in Excel and html format. Now, having said that, I'l point out that many of the 6m repeaters listed are not actually on the air, and the ones that are are not heavily used. So don't be surprised if you don't hear much (or any) traffic on the frequencies.

You'll find lots of activity on 6m in the late afternoons on 50.125 +/-, and 50.200 is a "local" hangout around Tulsa for 6m ops, but it's all sideband. Very little FM activity unless the band is really open.
6m tends to open (sporadic-E skip) between noon and about 6pm. Nighttime openings happen, but are rarer, so the number of people listening (to know if it IS open) goes down after dinnertime, but there's still some activity.
FM will only pick up if the opening is really good (unlikely after dark, especially) until TARC or the TU amateur club gets their 6m repeaters back on the air.
