Good job Scott! You are much farther along than I am. I was seriously working on WAJA until I got sick. I was using the shotgun method; work all of them I can and then shotgun the ones I don't need. But that makes for a heck of a lot of unneeded QSOs. I have also found that figuring out what prefecture they are in is tricky business unless they put it on their card. LOTW confirmations are no help at all. It appears that the method you are using is working great! Hang in there, you are so close I am sure you will finish it.

Last night I picked up a great station in Ishikawa Pref I needed: JA9CCG. Take a look at his QRZ page photos. He is a writer but likes to photograph war planes. He texted me in JTAlert to see if I was getting his reply. We worked until the QSO finished on a busy 20m band with a lot of QSB and QRM. Very nice and helpful ham!

So just have three prefectures to go: Yamaguchi in JA4 and Nagasaki and Kagoshima in JA6 land. It’s been a fun and more casual pursuit. Hard part now comes in getting the last three and sending QSL cards out through the buro and waiting.

Let me know if you see any calls in those three pref—if you track it :-). Thanks!
