Honestly, you are probably better off just purchasing a small AM/FM radio. While the broadcast on the radio is about 5 seconds behind, the streams tended to be nearly a full minute behind when I tried them. Now that KOA has a FM broadcast as well, you may be able to get away with just a cheaper FM radio. That said, I've not been to the Pepsi Center since said FM broadcast started.
