Abstract: We report the renovation of two satellite-communication antennas, named Takahagi and Hitachi 32-m antennas, into cm-wave radio telescopes. Both antennas have been successfully renovated into radio telescopes until 2012. VLBI observations at 6.7, 8, and 22 GHz have been successful since 2010. We have started single-dish observations of methanol masers at 6.7 GHz and H2O masers at 22 GHz from 2013.
