Field Day 2005 is three weeks away. I was just curious as to how many of you are participating and where you'll be? My club, the Charles County (MD) Amateur Radio Club, will be utilizing the La Plata Train Station Museum, operating as K3SMD. (The SMD is for Southern MarylanD.) We plan to have a QSL with a photo of the station and the restored US Navy caboose. If you're operating on Field Day, give us a shout!
The line through La Plata was originally built as the Baltimore and Potomac, came under Pennsylvania Railroad control and is now the Popes Creek Subdivision of CSX. For a little more insight:

73, hope to hear some of you out there! (If you're in the area, stop in and join us-we're about 35 miles southeast of Washington, DC.)
