[amsat-bb] Re: CA Ham Plates - Warning!

[Larry Gerhardstein]

In  Washington state, this can not happen.  See their DOL personalized 
plate section.  Anything like K6LCS "K6 LCS" are reserved for ham 
operator plates and will not be issued for personalized.  Other states, 
including Montana, should adopt WA DOL's method of filtering ham call 
signs.  In Montana, we have seen personalized plates containing 
combinations of letters looking exactly like ham calls--to non-hams.
