You're going to need to tell us where you are, and what it is you hope to listen to. Those frequencies are just numbers with absolutely no meaning without more information.

You'll hear the repeater's output on 154.145 - I'd try that first.

normally you would program just the frequency, not the input, there are cases though, like with the nebraska state patrol, where you will need to progrom them both in to hear both sides of the conversation

Forget about the input it's not needed. Just program the frequency, the repeater output.

Repeater OUTPUT, Repeater INPUT

Frequency Input
154.14500 156.03000
what one do i program in and what is each one for

Frequency = the output frequency of a repeater. That's the frequency you want to program into your scanner and listen to. If no input frequency was listed, it would mean there is no repeater and everyone is just transmitting and receiving on the same frequency directly.

Input is the input frequency of the repeater. So a typical field radio would actually transmit on this frequency, but receive on the repeater output.

There are a few cases in the RR database where the meanings are different than described about. In the case of a "duplex" channel, all the remote units transmit on "input" and the dispatcher transmits on "frequency". The result is that the remotes can not hear each other. There is no repeater. This is a typical setup for taxi cabs, and also for the CHP here in California.
