One will be the frequency that all the mobiles use to transmit to the
repeater, the other will be the frequency that the repeater uses to
retransmit to all the mobiles.

What you want is the repeater transmit frequency, not the mobile transmit
frequency. It should be clear from the list what they mean by rx and tx in
this particular case.

If it isn't clear from the list, try both:

- On the mobile's transmit frequency, you'll hear only one side of the
conversation (or at least there will be big differences in signal strengths
from different mobiles). Depending on distance and terrain, you may not get
anything at all - the repeater probably has a much better location and
antenna than you do.

- On the repeater's transmit frequency, you'll hear both sides of
conversations with approximately equal strength (provided the repeater is
hearing both mobiles OK).

If the frequency list is readily visible on the Web, post its URL and I'll
have a look.
