[Joel Kahn]

The property is visible from Greenbelt Road, beside the CSX/Metro tracks. It is (was?) their printing plant. Joel R Kahn

The license says 855.7625 actually says there are/were 3 repeaters for that frequency at :
7171 Wimsatt Rd in Springfield, VA
5245 GREENBELT ROAD,  COLLEGE PARK, MD (which seems to be U of MD property with a single large building).
1150 15TH STREET NW,  WASHINGTON, DC
(But only one for the 860.1875 at the 5202B River Rd,  Bethesda, MD location).

Any idea what the MD location was/is used for?
