Biography

I was born in Osaka in 1956. I have been interested in radio since I was a child, and I have repeatedly assembled and broken the radio. When I was in junior high school, I learned about amateur radio in articles on amateur radio introduction in youth scientific magazines. I took an amateur radio license as a junior high school freshman and continued to operate actively, mainly on 6 m. When I was a high school student, I learned Morse code and could enjoy communication with other countries without much power. But I gave up amateur radio completely to prepare for university entrance. After I entered university, I got a higher-class amateur radio license and enjoyed QSOs with many foreign countries, both by phone and CW. In 1995, I moved to Kanagawa Prefecture as a relocation. I ceased amateur radio completely because my job became so busy and I was not able to raise a big antenna like before. However, several years ago, I read a book article at a bookstore regarding "comeback ham" and decided to restart amateur radio again. Now I am enjoying ham life, even though it’s a peanut-sized station with a poor antenna system. When you find out about me, please feel free to call me.
