[Scan-DC] FedEx field?

Mon Nov 16 11:04:26 EST 2009

Radio play-by-play by scanner should be helpful.  I tried to listen on a broadcast radio receiver, and the call was about 30 seconds behind the actual play.  Too late to relate.

Regardless of what you're trying to listen to there, bring your strongest noise blocking headset.  Otherwise, you will not understand anything.  Earbuds with an inexpensive shooter's headset should work.

Thanks to everyone for help on the FedEx field freqs. For what it's worth, here's what I grabbed on Close Call (all analog). I've included my best guess as to what the frequencies are for, based on would I could hear. On some frequencies, I did not hear any of the activity because of the noise level inside the stadium. A lot of these freqs are on Dave's excellent page, and I marked those with his description. A few (marked with *) are not on Dave's list. These are either new freqs, or possibly "bleed-over" from adjacent freqs.

(*) 148.5875 (Military, apparently honor guard, ceremonial field events for vets, etc.)
    450.0375 (Radio play-by-play)
    451.3875 DCS043 (Dave lists "Centerplate")
    451.6875 (Dave lists "Centerplate," with tone DCS074)
(*) 460.15 (Seemed like parking control. Not on Dave's list.)
    461.15 DCS731 (and also no tone; sounded like parking, which is what Dave lists)
    462.9125 DCS734 (I heard concession stands; Dave lists Merchandise).
    463.8 DCS664 (Dave lists Ticketing/Gates; I noticed what sounded like parking)
(*) 463.8125 DCS606 (Caught by CC, but I did not hear the traffic on this channel. Not listed by Dave).
(*) 463.85 (Caught by CC, but I did not hear the traffic on this channel. Not listed by Dave).
    464.1 (Listed by Dave as housekeeping and ushers, with tones DCS703 & DCS 114. I did not catch a tone.)
(*) 464.7875 (Caught by CC, but I did not hear the traffic on this channel. Not listed by Dave).
    464.95 (DCS631 and also no tone) (Dave lists Suites/Club Level Security)
(*) 467.8125 C77.0 (Caught by CC, but I did not hear the traffic on this channel. Not listed by Dave).
    468.8* (Parking/shuttle buses; possibly repeater out of 463.8)
(*) 469.1 (Strong, but I couldn't hear what they were saying. Not listed by Dave.)

Got some Broncos and Redskins autographs after the game, which was cool.

Cheers,
Andy

  Andy (and list),

  FedEx Field is under "WFI Stadium" in the FCC database.

  The Prince George's County Project 25 trunked system (http://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?sid=6341) is active with medical calls on gamedays.

  I've collected a good list of FedEx Field freqs on my webpage (http://www.davidschoenberger.net/scanning/maryland/princegeorges.htm). More than enough stuff to listen to there.
