Weekend Events

There are quite a few events this weekend:
  • The DC101 Chili Cook-Off is Saturday at RFK Stadium.  464.3750 [110.9] is used for general RFK operations.  461.8125 [ d311] is used for RFK Guest Services.  Try 461.5125 [ d152] for CSC Event Staff (security/crowd control).  Last year, the organizers used 461.4250 [103.5], but their frequency is not very consistent year-to-year.  DC Fire will probably be using one of the Special Events talkgroups (2096, 2112, 2128).  MPD may use talkgroup 21232 or 16656.
  • The Joint Services Open House is Saturday and Sunday at Andrews AFB.  See the "Special Events" section of this page for a good run-down of what was used last year at the air show.
  • The Preakness is Saturday at Pimlico in Baltimore.  451.9875 [ d223] and 461.5375 [179.9] were previously used at Pimlico, but appear to have been deleted from the current license.  Baltimore Police and Fire have many "special events" talkgroups available to them on their trunked system; they'll probably be on one/several of those.
