Other than the metro tac channels what other talkgroups should I monitor for radio traffic concerning the Super Bowl?
Thanks

It's going to ne a long night listening if they make it to the SB. Just think if by chance the Vikes win it here, my scanners are going to be loaded with all interops, MPD, just about everyone except the dog catcher. I did not do much scanning and really did not hear much on the interop talkgroups I had programmed for the Saint's game but I probably did not have the right ones amd hey the game was too hard not to watch.
Lot's of DMR for sure with all the STA's issued for radio systems to support game activities. I wonder how much of Fed comms in the clear so I may check out that band. It defiantly should be an interesting night scanning even if the Vikings did not make it to the Super Bowl.
On a side note, just imagine all the frequency coordination that needed to be done to avoid interference issues, I don't know the frequency coordinators do it.
Doesn't the NFL have a frequency coordinator for every game?
Amateur Radio is the backup plan for EOC to EOC and between hospitals and EOCs if there is a failure of Public Safety comms. When this was tested last fall the Amateur system failed and they had to switch to the Armer Talkgroups to complete the exercise. Good thing they tested with enough time to correct the problems.
There will be some Federal Air asssets that do not have ARMER radios installed- they will use VTacs patched to ARMER Talkgroups while in the Air but on the ground all crew will be using ARMER Portables not The VTacs because of the lack of coverage.
