the over-the-air radio broadcast is typically delayed 5-8 seconds in order to
match it to the over-the-air television broadcast. This allows fans watching

WHERE TO BUY
The Live

locations in Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. They will also be for sale at the Alltel
Wireless Gator FanFest outside Gate 2 of the
O’Connell Center (begins three hours prior to kickoff), and at a display tent
outside the north end of the stadium.
In
addition, these units can be purchased online at the Live Sports Radio website.
