Coming soon on June 7,8 0000Z-2400Z is the annual Museum Ships Weekend.
A number of the ships will be using their original equipment.  A list of
ships and their callsigns, and recommended frequencies can be had by
googling Museum Ships Weekend.

Hi,

Ships to watch out for:
N1EPL MASSACHUSETTS TBK/TDE
NB1CR JOSEPH P. KENNEDY, JR if active will be using post-WWII Navy gear.

WW2LST LST-325 TCK/TDE/TCS
NI4BK NORTH CAROLINA TBK/TDE
WW2DD CASSIN YOUNG TCS+
W4AVM American Victory post-WWII Mackay Console(?)
VK4RAN HMAS DIAMANTINA Amalgamated Wireless of Austalia WWII rig with
push-pull parallel 813s in final.  40m at our sunrise.
SS Jeremiah O'Brien and SS Red Oak Victory on west coast sometimes fire
up their RMCA consoles.
NJ2BB NEW JERSEY often puts their URT-23 on SSB.  I think they have a
goal of operating some RTTY.

I'm sure there are others I have missed.  I would appreciate intel on
any others that run vintage equipment.
