I'm not sure if there are any repeaters you can hit from the ET highway near Area 51. From high locations (power line overlook or Tikaboo), you can hit 447.475 (PL=110.9, input minus 5MHz.) It is located on Angel Peak. I theory you should be able to use the other repeaters on Angel Peak, but I haven't found this to be the case. Since you will be in town for a bit, head over to AESHAM. They will give you a list of repeaters. You can also buy the ARRL repeater directory there. If you decide to buy antennas, you may want to price shop by going to Fry's Electronics (near the airport). http://www.frys.com/lasvegas.html http://www.aesham.com/ Rentals? I doubt it. There is a Bearcom near AES, but as far as I know, Bearcom just rents commercial radio gear. I see they have added satellite phones. http://www.bearcom.com/rentals/equipment.cfm You can also try Radio World in Boulder

They have used gear, but often their used stuff is priced like new.
