From Monday, 10 June through Thursday, 13 June, I took a road trip through Columbia, Camden, and Darlington, SC visiting some historic sites while staying in Cayce, just east of Columbia. In Columbia, I visited Historic Columbia and toured some of their historic homes and gardens. In Camden, I visited the Historic Camden living history park. In Darlington, I visited the museum at Darlington Raceway (maybe not everyone would consider Darlington a historic site, but a motor sport fan surely would). Along the way, I made stops in Sumter to visit Thomas Sumter's grave, in Eutawville to visit the Eutaw Springs battlefield, in Pineville to visit Francis Marion's grave, and in Walterboro to visit the Tuskegee Airmen Memorial. It was also an interesting trip radio-wise; there was a lot of activity from both Shaw AFB, McEntire JNGB, and Fort Jackson; the Palmetto 800 system was busy with public safety communications from the region; and railroads were quite busy, especially in and close around Columbia. I also discovered that the VHF TRS at Shaw AFB was no longer a stand alone system, but now part of the USAF 57C system. Unusual for me, I also had a few amateur radio QSOs along the way.

Amateur Radio/GMRS
Due to some of the side visits on this trip to Columbia, I used I-95 and I-26 rather than US-321, so there was a bit more amateur radio activity than what I usually hear on Columbia road trips. On the way back to Savannah on Thursday, there was a bit of a VHF band opening and I heard a lot of repeaters active with the SCHEARTS hospital net. It also seemed to be a good week for ISS crossband repeater activity in the southeast; I have it programmed into the mobile radio and heard numerous passes while on the road. GMRS was also active; in addition to the two repeaters listed below, the CSRAGRMS network was also active. It's a paid/members only network (and I'm a member), so I haven't listed their repeaters below; if you live near Augusta, GA or Columbia, SC or frequent those areas, I recommend becoming a member - they've got a nice network. I listen on Amateur Radio more than I talk, but on this trip I had several QSOs using the Anytone AT-D578UVIII Pro and the Anytone AT-D878UVII (both of which are capable of transmitting on FRS/GMRS frequencies). On the way north from Savannah on Monday, I had a QSO with KX4NF on 146.520 between Walterboro and I-26 on I-95 northbound, on Wednesday with N4SJC on the 444.8750 (PL 91.5) Columbia repeater while walking back to Historic Columbia from Railroad BBQ in downtown Columbia, and on Thursday while on the way back to Savannah I talked to AJWT on the 146.910- (PL 156.7) Whitehall repeater. I also used to GMRS capable Anytones to have some GMRS QSOs during the trip.

MilCom
Three and a half days in an around Columbia, Eastover, and Sumter gave me ample opportunities to listen the South Carolina Air National Guard F-16s and SC Army National Guard AH-64s, and Shaw AFB based F-16s. I could also hear the Army 58A TRS in use at Fort Jackson; they are still on the 58A system and have not yet migrated to the 98D system like Fort Stewart and Hunter AAF have (although I assume that at some point they will). From the Columbia, area, I could also hear military aircraft working out of Charleston, Beaufort, and Savannah as well as Poinsett Range (near Shaw AFB), the Gamecock MOA (north of Shaw AFB), the Bulldog MOA (over east central Georgia), and several aerial refueling tracks. As I mentioned above, there was a change in the VHF TRS at Shaw AFB; on a previous road trip I noticed that there was no activity from known talkgroups on the system and there were some new ones showing up, but I didn't have a chance to follow it up. On this trip I did, discovering that it's no longer a stand alone system, but now part of the USAF 57C system. What I heard has been submitted to RadioReference so that they can update their database.

I did some searching for McEntire JNGB communications, but never found anything that sounded like ground support communications (conventional or trunked). I also left a radio in talkgroup search mode thinking perhaps they're on the Palmetto 800 system but I didn't hear anything there either.

I didn't hear a lot of Federal communications during the road trip, but I did stumble across the maintenance repeater for the VA Hospital in Columbia and an unknown TRS that didn't seem to be a local one. While near McEntire JNGB, searching for frequencies there, I came across the 172.3000 control channel listed below; it wasn't very strong but I programmed it into one of the radios and listened for talkgroup activity but nothing was heard. The next day, it was slight stronger on I-20 between Darlington and Camden, but there was still no talkgroup activity on it. On Thursday, due to the VHF opening I mentioned in the Amateur Radio section, I was able to hear activity on the Savannah River Site P25 TRS (from the Aiken, SC area).

Public Safety
Most all of the public safety communications in the area were on the Palmetto 800 TRS, which is a statewide system. In some counties, dispatch is patched/simulcast/multicast on conventional repeaters. South Carolina Forestry Commission still uses VHF repeaters and several of those were heard active as was the Southeast Compact frequency. If you like listening to Medevac helicopters, 123.025 - helicopter common, was in used by medevac helicopters coming and going from the hospitals in the Columbia area.

Thomas Sumter's Grave
The first stop of the road trip on Monday was Thomas Sumter's gravesite just east of Sumter, SC and Shaw AFB. Sumter was an important figure in the American Revolution's Southern Campaign; he was an American militia/partisan leader, whose tactics resulted in him receiving the nickname "The Gamecock." After the war, he was elected to the House of Representatives and appointed as Senator. When he passed away on 1 June 1832 at his plantation near Sumter, the last surviving American General Officer of the American Revolution.

Darlington Raceway Museum
On Tuesday morning, I went to Darlington Raceway in Darlington, SC and visited their museum. It's not a large museum, but it has two rooms of historic race cars, memorabilia, and personal items from some of Darlington's legendary race winners. It's also home to the Motorsports Press Association's Hall of Fame. If you find yourself near Darlington, even if you're traveling on I-95, it's worth taking the detour and visiting the museum.

Historic Camden
I spent Tuesday afternoon at Historic Camden, A living history museum/park in Camden, SC. The park features several historic homes and structures that were relocated to the site to recreate part of what American Revolution era Camden would have looked like. It also features a reproduction of the Kershaw-Cornwallis House that was used for a time as British General Cornwallis' headquarters; the original house was burned during the Civil War. One of the American Revolution era earthen redoubts also still stands on the property. They also do demonstrations, including blacksmithing, which I stopped and watched for a time.

Historic Columbia
I spent Wednesday in downtown Columbia taking tours of three of Historic Columbia's historic homes and gardens. The three tours began at the visitors center and gift shop at the Robert Mills House, with each house being a short walk away, ranging from just across the street to a couple of blocks away. The first tour was the Woodrow Wilson Family Home and Museum of the Reconstruction Era; it was the childhood home of President Woodrow Wilson while his father was head of the Presbyterian Seminary in Columbia. Wilson grew up in Columbia as Reconstruction was coming to an end, so the two are brought together with the displays and interpretation in the home. The second was the Hampton-Preston Mansion and its impressive gardens; an example of how the 19th Century wealthy lived in the south, the slaves and former slaves who kept the house working aren't forgotten in the displays and interpretation. The third house was the Robert Mills House; built but never actually used as a house, it was home to the Presbyterian Seminary (which brought Wilson's father to Columbia) and schools. The tours were wonderful and the gardens are simply beautiful, they're well worth going to Columbia to visit.

Food in Darlington and Columbia
After visiting the Darlington Raceway museum on Tuesday, I stopped for lunch at the Mayflower Seafood Restaurant in Darlington before going to Historic Camden. I chose well. I ordered the $9.99 popcorn shrimp lunch special and was amazed at how much food I got for the price. There was not only plenty of it, it was delicious. They're definitely a great place to eat if you're traveling through Darlington.
On Wednesday, between the tours of the Hampton-Preston Mansion and the Robert Mills House, I walked over to one of my favorite BBQ restaurants, Railroad BBQ. Located in what appears to be an old service station next to railroad tracks, filled with SC sports memorabilia, and walls like a civil rights museum, they serve amazing BBQ. I went with the John Henry, the pulled pork dinner with two sides. You can't go wrong with anything on their menu; if you like BBQ and find yourself in Columbia, it's a must go.
Eutaw Springs, Francis Marion's Gravesite, and the Tuskegee Airmen Monument
I made several stops on the drive home to Savannah on Thursday. The first was a stop by a small park at the site of the Battle of Eutaw Springs in Eutawville during the American Revolution; it was the last major engagement of the American Revolution in the Carolinas. It's not something you'd want to drive to Eutawville just to visit (unless you live close), but it's definitely worth the detour for History and/or American Revolution buffs.
From Eutaw Springs, I went about 15 minutes up the road to Francis Marion's gravesite in Pineville. Marion, nicknamed the Swamp Fox for his partisan tactics while leading American Militia in the American Revolution, is one of my favorite figures from the Southern Campaign. Buried in the cemetery of his brother's plantation, I thought I would stop by and pay my respects since I was in the area.
Next I made my way to Walterboro, to visit the Tuskegee Airmen Memorial at Lowcountry Regional Airport. During World War II, the airport was Walterboro Army Airfield, where some of the Tuskegee Airmen were trained. The airport and memorial are just a short distance from I-95, so as you're passing through the area, it doesn't take much time to stop by and learn a bit about Walterboro AAF and the men who trained there.
After visiting the Tuskegee Airmen Memorial, I decided to try Dukes BBQ in Walterboro for lunch. It turned out that they have a $19.99 buffet full of BBQ and southern cooking, and it was well worth the price. The pulled pork and green beans were excellent and I tried each of the sauces, all of which were wonderful. The short detour off I-95 to grab a meal from Dukes is definitely worth it.
