The 3 licensed public safety frequencies I am aware of in Kane County are:

151.28 WPZP297
155.595 WNHP765
155.835 WPWY978

The RR database shows the State of Utah licensed for 155.7 WNGP397, Moccasin Mountain, Mohave County, Arizona.

I'd program in all four, along with statewide frequencies 155.505 and 155.745.

155.700 is the dispatch channel for Kane County Public Safety. It includes UHP for the area and Fredonia, AZ PD. 155.835 is Kane County Fire. These were active when I was down in the area not too long ago. I would follow n6orz's recomendation of programming in the five frequencies in that post as well as doing a search for some unfounded car to car traffic. I along with several others would be interested in the results of the search.

Good luck.

Search the police band in your scanner to see what you can find. I have found various repeaters that way. Also try 155.070 which is a input or repeater to 155.700. Let us know what you find.

I submitted all the Kane County frequencies to RR, mostly before I became an Admin. The 155.700/155.070 repeater is an odd one because the input and output are licensed to different entities and reportedly licensed in different states. (Such oddities are actually quite common in the FCC database.) But that is the most active repeater around Kanab.

155.835 is Kane County Fire, as Junior1970 mentioned.

155.595 is a UHP repeater in Sevier County with broad coverage across southern Utah, and I'm quite sure there is no such repeater in Kane County.

I'm not aware of a repeater on 151.280 in Kane County. I've seen a list that includes such a repeater on Frisco Peak near Milford with a tone of 203.5, but I have not confirmed it. If it exists it might be heard from Kane County.

In eastern Kane County the UHPs use the repeater on 154.680 in Garfield County. You may also be able to pick up traffic on 155.655, the UHP repeater on Abajo Peak (San Juan County).

While traveling through Kane County I've heard a lot of traffic on repeaters in Page, Arizona, which is the largest town in the area. I've also picked up occasional traffic on BLM, Glen Canyon, and various Arizona state and Coconino County frequencies. I have submitted these to RR.

Please submit any new confirmed repeaters and I will add them. Try to get the tone if possible, as that helps distinguish repeaters from inside and outside the county.
