Amateur Radio
These plates are issued to amateur (ham) radio operators.

This type started in the 1950s. The operator's callsign is the registration number, with the neat lightning bolt separator.

Around 1981, these plates were also made available for use on Combination registrations. Commercial and Camper are available today as well.
