Ian, One potential site may be the Congaree National Park. It is just south of Columbia. They do have a camping site location, there are rest rooms and plenty of parking for cars and trucks. I just did a drive-by and short visit last week on the way to a job in Augusta. There is no admittance fee to enter the park. The negatives are that it is in a low area along the Congaree River and the mosquito factor may be high in June. Not sure what their restrictions may be on radio operations.
