Not true. US Amateurs in Japan are no longer assigned "KA#xx" callsigns.=
They
get their licenses from the Japanese government now (with callsigns in the
"foreigners" block "8J#xxx" IIRC).
However, the US Navy does issue callsigns to amateurs at Antarctic Bases =
(ie,
KC4AAA, KC4AAC) and Guantanamo Bay (ie, KG4ML, KG4OX).
I forgot about Gitmo and Antarctica...You're completely correct.
