Operation Status of
the HFD Radio Station JG2XA
The HF radio station JG2XA was established on July 3, 2001 at the Chofu campus of the University of Electro-Communications (UEC) after the inspection of the equipments by the Post, Telephone and Telecommunication Office. Since then, the station JG2XA has been operated by Sugadaira Space Radio Observatory, UEC, for the HFD Project to study ionospheric disturbances.

The JG2XA station is continuously operated with the transmission power of 200W both at 5006 kHz and at 8006 kHz. The station ID is normally transmitted every 5 minutes by the amplitude modulation with the morse-codes of the call-sign JG2XA (*--- --* **--- -**- *-) and its objective UEC HFD STATION (**- * -*-* **** **-* -** *** - *- - ** --- -*). The type of radio signal is H2A (amplitude modulation with coded tones by single sidband).

The records and schedules of the JG2XA operations are yearly presented below. Emergency operations may be made without notice, but we will report the status here as soon as possible. Please check here if you can not hear us.

We appreciate your reception report and we will issue the verification card (Vericard) for the report.
