Normal  calls in Dominica use a digit in addition to the J7 prefix,  
e.g.,  J79Z, J75KG, J79GU, to mention a few from my logs.  While other   
special calls (normally issued for contests) have had no digit after   
the prefix (the 7 is part of the prefix) and a single letter suffix,   
J7OJ was issued specially as a tribute to K4OJ  (SK).



Bob,
 
I also was issued J7A back in 2002 or 03 for WPX CW.  The J7  authorities 
were reluctant to issue a call without two numbers since that had  never been 
done before, but I convinced them citing J3A and J6DX as examples  issued by 
their neighboring islands.  It worked - I broke their code,  hi.
