That essentially was the agreement with the State of Georgia. You get a free plate with your call (but you still pay all the taxes) The radio call plate identifies you at the scene of an emergency as a legitimate radio operator, and you are volunteering your time and equipment in a time of need. It was never a vanity plate. The plate should not cost me $55 per vehicle.

Thus, the agreement between myself and the State of Georgia is hereby dissolved.

But the local ARES folks are really nice so I'll still help out with that.
