One mast with a fixed fourteen-element Create Design log-periodic. Ryota reads its bearing as toward Chicago. The U.S. transmitting site for this receiver has not been identified.
The receiver’s three parcels transferred to DRW-NX Japan on 8 June 2023. Street View shows construction in August; the standing array was seen in early November and photographed at close range on 5 November.
This is a receive-only installation, with no Japanese HF transmit callsign or outbound BR IFIC route.
A Starlink terminal is visible beside the cabinets. The site’s low-latency connection into the terrestrial network remains unidentified.

NuVo’s microwave route runs south from Tokyo via Kyowa Bussan’s Ariake roof and this Mother Farm station. At Cosmo West it shares a tower with GTT/Optiver, with separate microwave equipment for each operator.
Tower/Sora connects here by E-band from Kokubo. Ryota identifies the tiny upper dish as JS2SB’s handoff into NuVo’s network. This gives Tower the onward route to Shin-Toyosu.
The handoff was already described in January 2025; the August 2026 visit supplies the close view below.

Which Mother Farm tower?
NuVo is west; GTT is east. Older diagrams reversed these assignments. Ryota’s November 2024 corrections also assign Kyowa Bussan Ariake to NuVo and No. 5 Inoue to GTT.
