What repeaters are actually used in Las Vegas?
That’s a fantastic question! With over 120 repeaters on the air in Las Vegas, you’re probably wondering which repeaters are worth programming!
We’re here to help!
At the Sin City Repeater Group and LasVegasHamRadio.com, we don’t bother recycling the same lifeless lists that have been rotting online since AES closed in 2016. You know the ones — endless copy/paste jobs full of dead repeaters and ghost towns. Cute for nostalgia, useless for actual radio.
This isn’t that. This is Las Vegas ham radio without the BS — a list of active repeaters where you’ve actually got a shot at a real QSO. No guarantees, no magic wand, just machines that are alive enough to matter.
And here’s the deal: not every repeater here is ours. Far from it. We don’t endorse, vouch for, or claim credit for anyone else’s gear. If it’s on this list, it’s because it’s on the air — period. If you want a repeater that covers your bathroom handheld from 40 miles away, build your own.
Bottom line? These are the frequencies where the conversation actually happens. Everything else is just static.
Disclaimer
Our lawyers wanted us to say this just in case: everything listed here is provided as-is. We don’t guarantee the accuracy of any frequency, CTCSS, coverage area, or status. Repeaters come and go all the time — today’s hot machine could be tomorrow’s dead carrier. Inclusion on this list doesn’t mean we endorse, prefer, or even like one repeater over another. If it’s listed, it simply means someone’s heard it on the air recently.
Use at your own risk, program at your own risk, and remember: ham radio is a moving target. If you need a repeater that works from your handheld in the middle of a stucco bathroom 40 miles away… you might need to build your own. (At least don’t go complaining on another repeater about another club not giving you directly what you need for your bathroom!)
