| New NE License Plate |
Thanks to the hard work of Bob Mitchell, WBØRJJ, our Section State Government Liaison, Nebraska will be issuing new amateur radio "call plates" starting in 2011. The graphic and call letters will be forest green until 2017. Then they will switch to either blue or black. Amateur Radio Plates are available through the Nebraska Department of Motor Vehicles to any person who holds a valid Amateur Radio Station License issued by the Federal Communications Commission. The plates are inscribed with the applicant's official amateur radio call letters and are issued in lieu of regular plates. Amateur Radio Plates may be placed on motor vehicles, motorcycles, trailers, semitrailers and cabin trailers. The fee for a set of Amateur Radio Plates is $5.00 in addition to any other applicable registration fees and taxes and is paid to the County Treasurer at the time of initial registration and annually when the registration is renewed. Amateur Radio License Plates do not afford the registered owner any special parking privileges.
