Tokyo Hy-Power, a manufacturer of Amateur Radio amplifiers, antenna tuners,
and other equipment, is in bankruptcy, and its plant, in Saitama Prefecture
near Tokyo, has been shuttered. Telephones at the company no longer are
being answered, and its Japanese website has been taken down, although the
company's US website remains working. Company CEO/President Nobuki
Wakabayashi, JA1DJW, founded Tokyo Hy-Power Labs in 1975. He blamed "the
recent depression in the industrial RF power products area [which] has led
to the very difficult financial position."
