UJ-EY Tajikistan prefix change 1994

Author: Alan, 5B4AHJ

The prefix UJ was used for Tajikistan prior to the break-up of the USSR.

As was usual with USSR callsigns, the first letter of the suffix denoted the oblast.

Prefix	Oblast #	Oblast name
UJ#J	040	Districts of Republican Subordination
UJ#K	182	Kulab (before 1988-09-08 and after 1990-01-24)
UJ#K	192	Khatlon (from 1988-09-08 to 1990-01-23)
UJ#R	042	Gornyj Badakhshan GBAO
UJ#S	041	Leninabad
UJ#X	183	Kurgan-Tube (part of oblast #192 from 1988-09-08 to 1990-01-23)

Following independence, from 1994-01-01 the prefix for Tajikistan became EY and administrative regions were denoted by the call area, not the first letter of the suffix.
