'''Scanner frequencies for NCAA [http://www.bigten.com Big Ten] Football games'''
 
  
Major sporting events such as NCAA Big Ten football games drawn thousands of fans to town for each home game.  These games provide great scanning opportunities as there is a wide variety of radio usage related to the games including stadium operations, parking, police, fire/ems, EOC, towing, shuttle buses, media, etc. This page serves to display the local trunked systems and frequencies where these game related operations occur on one single page.
 
 
This page is by no means complete and local listeners are encouraged to add or correct any of the information presented here. 
 
The University of Illinois information is complete but the rest is simply what could be ascertained by viewing the Radioreference.com
 
forums, the Radioreference.com  database, and other scanning websites.  Some information is just a suggested list of scanner
 
targets until more accurate radio usage can be determined.''

-For public safety at Memorial Stadium, CPD, UIPD, and the County Sheriff police agencies use the 453.250 (118.8)/[http://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?sid=4403 MDICE TRS] TG 22503 while ISP D10 troopers use [http://www.starcom21.com Starcom21] TG 13020. Fire operations are on 154.265 simplex (the FD units monitor 154.070 (131.8) with a pager though).  EMS operations are either by Arrow Ambulance on 462.975 (179.9) or Pro Ambulance 462.950 (186.2).  Illini EMS uses 451.450 (DCS 131) and occasionally 158.865 (CSQ).<br/>

*A local scanner listener reports that radio usage will likely change next year as [http://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?sid=933 SAFE-T] usage will be more prevalent amongst public safety agencies covering the game, so follow the forums after the first home games in 2008 for the latest details.
