While there, you may want to listen to the behind-the-scenes action on several sets of frequencies.
Public Service:
New @ 8/9/98 - There have been recent changes to the frequencies used by the Bethlehem trunked radio system; rather than track them here, I'll refer you to Nick Lechman's excellent page at http://members.tripod.com/~Scanning_Bethlehem/Lots of activity on the trunked system after 5 PM as festival-goers come to town. During the day you may hear municipal workers getting things ready. Heavy Bethlehem police and fire presences at the festival.
Musikfest Organization:
151.685 (operations)
151.625 (itinerate business)
Most operations on 151.685 with calls
to base which will relay to mobiles. Also heard some food vendors and transporation
coordinators on 151.625.
Remote Uplink:
450.35 (B-104)
probably others as both cable and radio
stations cover the festival live.
