Grove's "Federal Frequency Directory" 2nd edtion show that 165.0750 
orginally was allocated to the US Army for their use.  So it is possible 
that the Army National Guard might be using.  Grove's Directory doesn't show 
any specific locations for the use of this frequency while 165.0875 shows 
the same potential users as the 173.XX frequency and also includes the 
Veterans Administration including specific AF AR usage locations

173.4125 is allocated to USAF & USA (nationwide), US Army Corps of 
Engineers -- no law enforcement -- USACOE does have park rangers with law 
enforcement authority.  The frequency once was used by the Westover JARB 
Fire Deparment, but is no longer part of the base system since the new 
Digital P25 was installed.

(BTW I left all the Westover JARB old VHF highband authorization/usage in my 
scanner and have yet to get a hit on any of them since the base went to the 
new P25 digital radio systems on new frequencies).
