Lowest Regional QNH?

I haven't flashed around in a FJ for about 6 years now, but can anyone who is in current FJ flying practise tell me whether it is still standard procedure to set the lowest regional QNH for the route.

Some of you Valley types might be best to answer this.

It always dumbfounded me why we have so many regional QNHs for such a tiny set of islands - especially when you either set the lowest or the local airfield QNH. Most of my time on Tonka you'd use radalt anyway. In the US they just set the QNH of the airfield within 100miles of where they are flying - seems to work OK for them.
