I was born and raised in Akihabara, Tokyo, I was literally a "Radio Boy". I became interested in radio when I saw a scene in the American (CBS) comedy drama "Gilligan's Island" in which the cruise ship on which the main character, Gilligan (a sailor), was cast adrift due to engine trouble, and he converted a radio into a radio to send out an SOS on the island he reached.

In 1971, I got my 1st amateur radio station license of JE1BQE in Taito-ku, Tokyo, and in 1976, I also got my 2nd amateur radio station license of JA9QZH in Uozu-city, Toyama Pref. I have been enjoying radio ever since. My current job (designing wireless communication equipment) is also greatly influenced by this childhood hobby.
