## About this plate

AMATEUR AND CITIZENS RADIO PLATES. Given its own series rather than folded into the specialty index because the FORMAT differs categorically: this is the only Guam plate whose serial is assigned by a FEDERAL agency and merely transcribed by DRT. It is the cross-jurisdictional twin of Puerto Rico's Art. 2.28 radio-amateur plate, which does exactly the same thing in almost the same words, two territories, two statutes, one delegation to the FCC.

## About the format

The pattern shows the general shape of a US amateur call sign (prefix letters, a numeral, suffix letters) purely as an illustration. It is NOT a sourced grammar and must not be treated as one until 47 CFR is pinned.

## Fee

§ 7121(b): in addition to the regular registration fee, not exceeding ten dollars ($10.00), charged again whenever the vehicle or its ownership changes
