New commer from AK, located in Tokyo

Hello folks, dear VK members.

I've been active at AK for years now, and I'm now back to HAM world having moved to a condominium with an antenna tower on the roof, whose American owner
kindly allowed me to put up an antenna for HAM use.

I got TS-120S in a good condion and about to put an arrow-line antenna for 15mB now that SSN is its very peak.

My condominium is four-story high and top of the antenna reaches almost 5m-high from the roof level, what is more, condominium building itself stands on a higher ground.

I don't know till I give it a try if 120W+arrow-line(non-beam) can get radiowave reaching US and European continent, yet luckily, there is lower level ground
in those directions and very few high buildings.

My ex-call sign is JL1DCA, yet, I don't cling to my old callsign and I am willing to get a new callsign.

So, now standing by for your breaking-ins.

Suzuki-

Welcome to Videokarma!

I think that your new antenna will work very well to send signals to the USA. 73 from W6ATV.
