Anyone been to the state fair with their scanner? I do see some talk groups for the SAFE-T system which are analog. 
Anything else worth a listen?

Effective immediately we will be deleting, without notice, any negative threads or posts that deal with the use of encryption and streaming of scanner audio.
We've noticed a huge increase in rants and negative posts that revolve around agencies going to encryption due to the broadcasting of scanner audio on the internet. It's now worn out and continues to be the same recycled rants. These rants hijack the threads and derail the conversation. They no longer have a place anywhere on this forum other than in the designated threads in the Rants forum in the Tavern.
If you violate these guidelines your post will be deleted without notice and an infraction will be issued. We are not against discussion of this issue. You just need to do it in the right place. For example:

Indiana State Fair
I wonder if there wouuld be alot of scanner traffic at the Indiana State Fair during the week?
Up here in Northern Indiana, most area schools are back in session.
Is this true in other parts of the state?

We started back on Monday here.garryd451 said:
Other than police operations, there are some analog talk groups used by state fairgrounds employees, mostly maintenance. They are used year-round but of course are busier now.
According to local news reports, thefts from cars parked in lots near the fairgrounds are rampant.
You will also hear IPD on MECA being active near the fairgrounds. Needless to say they are very busy!
I don't know the analog talk groups for the FG but they should be in the SAFE-T database.

For future reference since the fair is all but over...
The state fair analog TG's were boring with a modest amount of traffic.
The fair train was even more boring to listen but it did have traffic on the freq. listed in the DB.
The FRS/GMRS was busy with consession people. I never heard a single family using those frequencies.
Overall, it was not really worth bringing it.
