Fenway Park                                                      Thanks to Tim Caldwell and Caldwell's Antenna for much of the new info

There are so many new Fenway frequencies and so many old that all are listed below but those confirmed in use for the 2005 Red Sox season are listed in a Blue font.

Boston Red Sox Security
452.8125R   WQBD440   D143    New Security Repeater for 2005    (licensed 9/23/04)
461.1375R WPIV945     D043    Security Ch used in 2004 season      466.1375in  (also repeated onto 154.60 D243 though not sure why not sure by them??)
466.3875S   WPIV945                   used in 2004 have not heard in 2005 yet
On opening day 2005 they referred to a tactical channel I did not find. I also once got a hit on 461.1375 D043 but really saw no use. I think Ch3 may be direct on the 452.8125 but again I'm not sure yet


Longtime previous Channel plan for security before 04
463.325S Ch1   103.5 (no activity heard in either 2004-2005 season I think they have been abandoned)

Boston Red Sox Security
461.1375R WPIV945  New Security Channel D043   466.1375in  (also repeated onto 154.60 D243 though not sure why??)
466.3875S   WPIV945  another new Ch unsure of use yet
Longtime previous Channel plan for security (not sure these are still used no activity on opening day 4/9/03)
463.325S Ch1   103.5
464.075S Ch2   103.5

*First reported as a repeater output by Caldwell's Antenna during recent Playoff Games with a simulcast on 154.60 D243. **
During the Fenway Bruce Springsteen show I did find Red Sox security using 466.1375 but I thought it was just being used as a simplex channel. All three of the new frequencies are only licensed as simplex but there could be a repeater in operation. There are all sorts of new radios around the park since the new ownership has been taking over. All the ushers and ticket takers have EX600's on their own channel which I am not sure of yet. (**confirmed 4/9/03 Opening Day)

Fenway Operations
463.3625S***WPSM813   Ch 1  71.9  Maintenance, Front Office    ***
463.4125S    WPSM813   Ch2  71.9   Control Booth, PR
463.3875S    reported by Scanner Master as a concession Freq

***note: Caldwell's Antenna also reported 463.3625S being used by Concessions with D712 but this seems odd. I really am going to have to spend more time down near the Park.
