After being forced to accept some cheaper flights via Japan to Korea, I will be taking the opportunity to activate a JA5 and a JA8 summit tomorrow and Saturday. Alerts are posted as JI1GBE.
I will try as many bands as possible, perhaps NA may be workable? Please listen out if you can.
SOTA dinner on the Friday evening, so the JA8 activation could be considered tentative
Thanks Toru, since we started surveying Japan, Iβve wanted to explore and activate all 4 JA associations, which I can now tick off
The help of people like yourself and Mr Fukuno is what makes ham radio fun and it was great to finally get you in the log! Strangely, no ill effects from the niku-umeshu-niku-umeshu cycle we went through last night
Great to finally get Hokkaido in the chaser log!
Let us know when you get down to JA6/Okinawa. The summits are not so great but the food and awamori are.

Welcome to Japan again.
I apologize not to join the mixer in Akihabara last week.
My commercial site was moved from Nihombashi near Akihabara.
Anyway it was unfortunately cold and rainy last weekend. I found the video by JF5VHW
JA5 is my favorite area since 1981 because itβs filled with many mountains including the highest one in western Japan(JA3-6).
Hope to see you again here.
