Cool. Is Okinawa a JA posession like Guam or Saipan is a W6
posession?

You ignored the phrase "...according to Lennie".

Len posts here. If he thought I needed that information, he would
have
given it to me.

But he did...Right there where he tried to make us think Okinawa
was NOT a "real" part of Japan.

Okinawa is a prefecture of Japan...a "state", just like
Hawaii,
Rhode Island, or Texas is to us.

Prefecture. There are awards for working those.

A-yup.

They are very much a part of Japan,
CONTRARY to what Lennie would have other believe.

What others?

You...Me...Anyone who happens to read through here...

"Sayonara" is completely appropriate.

And "putz" is not.

Absolutely not. Nor would I use it one the air.

I had a blast from Okinawa in 81...But the "new" sequential
callsign system was still new in the States, and a lot of folks seem to
skip by the "KA6" calls...UNTIL, that is, that we got wise and started
signing /JR6. Then the pile-ups started! I was KA6CM on Oki.
