Navy Radio Transmitting Facility [NAVRADTRANSFAC / NRTF] Totsuka is the only Navy HF Facility on the Kanto Plain in Japan. NRTF Totsuka is located about 8 miles south of Atsugi (40 minutes by car). NRTF Totsuka is a small communications base near Yokohama, just down the road from Kamiseya [which includes personnel at NRRF, CSG, FOSIF, and NSGA]. In 1952 the US Navy set up a new Naval Communication Station in Totsuka, Japan. The Yokosuka NAVCOMTELSTA also operates a satellite radio receiving facility in Totsuka, and its mission is to maintain and operate communications equipment linking ship and shore stations in the Far East.
