The PL is on the transmitting frequency.  Whether or not you hear any chatter will depend on the coverage of the repeater, which will be much greater than the the transmit range of your HT (that's the whole point of the repeater).  Chances are pretty good that if the repeater is within 10 miles or so (probably even more) that you'll hear whatever is there.
