When I went to renew my amateur radio license plate online it said that it had to be replaced and I had to call the office. (Will call them Monday morning) Has anyone else gone thru the procedure? Will I be able to get the same one with my callsign? Anyone know? How does a renewal in a case like this work?<div><div><div><br clear="none"></div><img src="cid:bT0sY3XPECSEMG7VMxfR" alt="Inline image" style="width:812px;max-width:100%"><div><br clear="none"></div><span id="m_432251073453361220ydpdc7297edyiv9622128951m_-8323502141255698671m_5133220615381697156yahoo-rte-cursor-span"></span><br clear="none"></div></div>
