[HCDX]: Japan's postal codes change today

["Sonny M. Ashimori" <sonny@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

JAPAN

The Japanese Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications introduces the new
seven-digit postal code, which replaces the old three- or five-digit
system, effective February 2, 1998.

NHK's new postal code is 150-8001, which replaces the old 150-01.

If you have questions about other stations or any other address in Japan,
please ask me privately. There is a convenient number search engine on the
MPT's web page <http://www.inac.co.jp/yuujirou/>, but unfortunately it's
all in encoded Japanese so most of you can't read it.

Sonny
