Ayuh!  For my FN55MF location in central Maine I calculate 
68 minutes for JA3, 77 minutes for JA5, and 79 minutes for 
JA6 (I am assuming my software correctly identifies the JA 
call areas -- in any case it is definitely ~79 minutes for 
extreme Southwestern Japan).  Probably another 15 or 20 
minutes added to those numbers for extreme Northeastern 
Maine, but I didn't calculate it.
