Talkgroup 0-05-106 on the Houston 2-Way Downtown LTR was active on July 3 and may be the IATSE Local 51 setting up the stages.

Also looks like 5 Star Event Services is handling security again this year so they might be on their own radios.

For many years prior to 2009, this event used the 16-channel Houston 2-Way rental radios for operations.
