400 Aftermath
Okay here is my report from last weekend's Brickyard 400.
The racing frequency list above is dead on.
NASCAR was using Ch. 1 with command calling itself "Tower".
Local traffic was on the MECA TAC talkgroups, plus of course the
City of Speedway talkgroups. On talkgroup 11216 Speedway PD Dispatch
I heard "Control to Tower", so obviously they had a presence inside
the Pagoda.
The 181st FW "RACERS" fly over was heard on 118.675 Speedway Tower.
I was testing the scanner and inadvertenly picked up transmissions :wink: :wink: in the 450 and 455 MHz range as follows.
450.4125 "Raceday" Program Local TV
455.3125 Ch. 13 Director feed
455.5125 "Weekend Sunrise" program w/ Dopler 9000 (Ch. 13?)
PA was using 455.1375 and 450.1375.
Before the race some group was using 155.2800 (Hospital to Squad)
as a casual chit-chat channel.
Inside the track I was hearing food vendors on 467.950 and 467.975, its
possible it was just an over riding signal from a nearby transmitter,
but it really didn't seem to be that way.
It was great time, especially enjoyable when your favorite driver wins the race!!! 8)
