What makes you think that those same restrictions would not apply to
a LPFM station or do you plan to operate this station without
complying with local zoning and use restriction ordinances?

Anyhow, one can always put a Part 15 device on top of an existing
structure - whether it's a building, a grain elevator, a lamp post,
whatever you can get the owner's permission for. Feed it with an
803.11(b) link (another Part 15 device) - no license needed for either.
Put up several around town.

Phil,
There are some communities that will not allow you put Part 15 devices.
There's a big difference between LPFM and part 15, LPFM is consider a legal
radio system while some community don't grasp what part 15 devices are.

So just how do these communites disallow part 15 devices, since there
are tons of part 15 devices in use by people everywhere everyday?
Just where do these communities get their authority to regulate part 15
devices?

top of lamp poles ect, ect and what they ban by ordiniances they make those
who to do something like that pay and hefty fees.

Ah, now we're getting down to some nitty-gritty issues.

Did you think that you would be able to put something up on
non-private property without paying hefty fees?

What would stop you from putting the device on the roof of the
tallest building in town? The fees for the use permit?

If the city REALLY wanted the station, they have the power to waive
those fees. What does that tell you?

And if the FCC was to grant you the authorization for your LP
station, would that disappear the above problems like magic?
PRB-1 does not apply to anything but an amateur radio antenna
support structure.

How did we get back to ham radio ???

Welcome to the world of zoning and permits for communication
facilities.....

I might comment on this if I had a clue about what you are attempting to
say. If you can't put forth your ideas any better than this, no wonder
the FCC denied your petition, they probably didn't know what you were
talking about either.
