During brief visits home annually I am active on CW and SSB,

The home base consists of a Yaesu FT-840 barefoot. The primary antenna is a Cushcraft R-6000 vertical up 60 feet. Along with my brother, Jay, K7COM, I administer IRLP Node 3098 (W7AAE) of the Lake Mead Internet Radio Society (LMIRS).

From Tokyo I have operated for many years as 7J1AIL. I am now mostly QRV as VU3USJ in New Delhi and quite active on HF.

Other callsigns: A52SW, S21VOA, T6AD, T88SH and 9N7VOA. I try to do mini-DX'peditions from time to time in Asia-Pacific regions.
