Super Bowl XLIII
Now that the Inauguration has passed, the next big event to monitor will be Super Bowl XLIII in Tampa. I'm on scene now, but so far the federal bands have been pretty quiet in the area. I did spot what appeared to be a DHS-marked AS350 AStar helicopter flying around the stadium on Thursday morning. But it's still over a week away so things will start ramping up soon.
For those who might want to listen in to the NFL event and behind the scenes communications at Raymond James Stadium, try looking up WQJQ418 on the FCC web site!
