JAPANESE BAND PLAN(ONLY for the outside of JAPAN)

A Happy New Year 2022

Thank you for your interest in the JA Awards.
JARL-issued awards, such as AJD, JCC, WAJA, etc., currently
require actual QSL cards as a proof of the QSO. These awards cannot
be verified by the LoTW data.

There is a strong demand from overseas award hunters to JARL to accept the LoTW data
for the JARL awards application, but JARL has not showed any interests
to utilize them for the awards application.
I would like to strongly request JARL to accept LoTW data for the awards application.
We are looking for support for JARL's acceptance of using LoTW data for the awards
application from many overseas award hunters who are interested in JA's importan
awards.
I share a same opinion with you.
Please send me your comments and agreement .
Thank you for your cooperation.


Best regards

Hiro Matsuura
