[MCARC] Car license, ham plates

I've had printed plates on each since '22, so just stickers again this
year.

Long story.

I've had an embossed callsign plate on the Dakota since the blue ones
were issued.

In 2020 I bought the Acadia, registered it as a car and received the
blue printed callsign plate.

In February 2021 I received the renewal notice and only the Acadia was
listed.  No mention of the Dakota.  A trip to the tag office resulted in
her poking around in the system for a while and she found the Dakota and
renewed it in a round about way.

In 2022 the notice arrived in the same manner--only the Acadia was
listed.  The agent decided to reissue the plate for the Dakota and I
received a blue printed version for it.

In 2023 and 2024 both vehicles were listed on the renewal notice.

I dunno why it took a new plate for the Dakota to be recognized, but
here we are.

I seem to recall that at one time the stickers had a unique number on
them that matched the registration sheet so care was needed to assure
the correct sticker was applied.  Now there is no such identifier and if
I swapped stickers no one would be the wiser so long as the registration
sheets were placed correctly in the vehicles.

73, Nate
