The question is what part of an FCC license gives you the right

to knowingly violate a contract you signed.


Which is, in fact, the very logic the FCC used to justify not
preempting CC&R's for hams. There isn't any part of your
license grant that makes me entitled to break a private contract.
It does entitle you to reasonable antennas, which may violate
local and state laws, they just said no to the private contracts,
at least for Hams. Of course, you can violate that private
contract and put up a TV antenna, no license required, and that's
by FCC rule.

HOWEVER, that's what it is now. If HR 4969 becomes law, then
getting an FCC license WILL make parts of some private contracts
illegal to enforce, just like the FCC already did for TV reception
antennas...
