ＪＡ3ＧＲ'ｓ Ｈｏｍｅ Ｐａｇｅ

　JA3GR, a fixed station, started in December 1953 at Sumiyoshi, Higashinada, Kobe, Japan.
　During the following year another station, JA3SR, a portable station, opened at Oukouchi, Kanzaki, Hyogo.
　I operated both stations mainly on the 6 meter band until 1961.

　仕事が忙しくなり出向などもあって約３０年間のＱＲＴの後、１９９１年に新しいＲｉｇで復活しましたが、１９９５年１月の阪神淡路大震災で住吉町の旧シャックが全壊し、 古いＲｉｇも予備部品も家屋の解体廃材と共に重機で根こそぎ棄てられてしまいました。
　僅かに新シャック(現設置場所 神戸市東灘区魚崎北町)に移してあった古いＱＳＬや文献、写真などが難を逃れました。

　Thereafter, QRT lasted for some 30 years due to various reasons until 1991 when I revived my present shack at Uozakikita Higashinada with new equipments.
　My old shack at Sumiyoshi including rigs and spare parts were totally destroyed by the fatal Hanshin-Awaji earthquake in January 1995.
　Only the limited numbers of ancient QSL cards, a few documents and photographs could fortunately survive from the earthquake as those had been moved to my new shack before it hit here.
