Comrex makes little belt pack/pocket sized headset receivers for this band.
They also make small low power transmitters. The 25 meg RPU band is commonly
used for local IFB by TV remote trucks. Some used to use their PRO subchannels
for IFB to the truck. If you have an FM, you could use an SCA for IFB to your
vehicle and then a Comrex system from the vehicle to the event. This could be
a portable package with a couple of mag mount antannas.
