For Amateur Radio China is divided into 30 Provinces. The province is determined by the Callsign region, BG0-BG9, and the suffix. Eg Shanghai (4AA~4HZZ). Log4OM does not have a pull down list for provinces, so I placed a 2 letter code in the QSO comments to indicate what province the callsign was in. Created an Award in Log4OM reading the comments. The 2 letter reference code is taken from an Awards program UltimateAAC.
I have worked 26 provinces, missing 4 to have all 30.
They are
BG0 XZ Xizang (Tibet)
BG3 SX Shanxi province
BG9 NX Ningxia Hui province
BG9 SN Shaanxi province
Some will be tough, such as Tibet which has a sparse population and harsh climate.
Note 10m shows up as my most popular band. I have worked 2 provinces on 6m!
