That may be a throwback to the old FCC interim designators. For example, if you upgraded at the Buffalo (NY) FCC office, your call was W3ABC/BF. We used to say "Interim BullFrog". At least I did. :-) It indicated that you had just upgraded so your class on file may be outdated, and to check with that FCC office for details. Each FCC office had a designator. That was before field upgrades such as /AG, Etc.
Also there is /B for Beacon. Joe M.
