What's SENSU
It's...............
Sensu - Ougi - fan...
This is a textile called "Bingata",
one of famous cloth in Okinawa by Mr. Tinen Sekigen
who uses Japanese fans as his motif here.
"SENSU" (or "Ougi") means a fan in Japanese.
Yes, SuperDARN FOV's below look like fans, don't they?!
Syowa East and South SuperDARN HF Radars' FOV is just "SENSU"
We call it "Syowa SENSU" radars...
Make sense?
