Just found my notes from the fair. I only had about half an hour of time to do some monitoring so this is just a short list, but nonetheless it is something to go on. Interestingly I noted no traffic on the Expo's licensed VHF frequencies. The Expo personnel I observed all had what appeared (judging by the antennae) to be UHF HTs.

154.570 D131 unknown vendors - interesting because Williston WalMart uses this frequency CSQ and I
could hear the confused employees sometimes in the distance. Eventually WM employees switched
to 154.600 CSQ.
453.4875 D411 (possibly simplex, or repeater with very short "tail") Essex town services - seemed to be
EMS/fire informal chat - first time I have heard anything on this frequency, and it has been in my scanners since it was licensed. Emissions code was for digital voice I believe, at least it was when they were initially licensed.
462.675 D244 Expo parking (wonder if any of them have GMRS licenses?)
467.75 D343 Expo personnel

It's that time of year again!

Heard 453.4875, D411, repeaterized, two LEOs working a detail at the fair, possibly one from Essex and one from Colchester.
