[Scan-DC] March for Life 2005 Frequencies

[Michael J.Aquilina]

Hi all,

While sorting through all my radio-related paper, I found my scanner 
logs from last year's March for Life, a large yearly demonstration in 
the DC area. This year's event will be held Monday, so I figured I'd 
post them in case anyone was interested in scanning it this year.

I marked the following itinerants as "interesting" in that they didn't 
sound like normal local business traffic and may have been the official 
March for Life operations frequency. One of them is, (my guess is 
154.570 in simplex) but unfortunately I didn't write down which was 
which:

154.5700 - Unknown user, possibly March for Life operations
464.5000 - Unknown, possibly March operations or photographers
464.5500 - Unknown
467.7625 - Unknown
467.9000 - "Control"
467.9250 - Unknown

EWTN (a nationwide Catholic cable station) covers the event live with 
multiple cameras. Camera operators are directed on 457.575.

Nonstop talk on FRS from demonstrators. Metrorail frequencies were very 
active due to heavy crowds, particularly the Red Line. With many large 
groups being bused in, bus company frequencies should be active, too.

73,
