I suspect that a station there is dependent upon a ham - staffer willing to sponsor and look after it. If at times there are none on staff, it risks going back into storage.
That's my guess, but that's how I've seen this play out at other places.
Good news, indeed.

Very cool!
I visited the station many years ago when I first moved here in 1986.
It was in an out of the way place in the American History museum.
It was sad to see it dismantled, but somebody had the foresight to keep the license active. Glad to see the powers that be at the Smithsonian realized they should put it back.
