Default Palmdale California To Pass Anti Ham Radio Law

wrote in message
...

Neither AB 1228 nor PRB-1 mean anything until a locality passes and
enforces an ordinace contrary to state and federal statute AND an
individual is "harmed" by the ordinance AND the individual challenges
the ordinance in court.


And to add insult to injury, you'll have to spend your money to get your
antenna installed, spend your money to fight the city's illegal rules, and
then you'll have to pay your taxes.. which the city will use to FIGHT YOU
and your antenna installation.

The Government(at all levels) passes all kind of laws that probably aren't
legal or constitutional. They're supposed to at least try to pay attention
to existing rules, laws, and the Constitution but frequently they don't.
And then we the people have to spend our time and resources fighting the
people we elect to these offices.

The real problem is no one pays attention to these things. Even if you
manage to go to court, get these rules thrown out, the people who wrote them
will not be penalized in any palpable way.

I had a HAM friend in a town near Sacramento who had to fight city hall on
an antenna tower he'd set up. He had it up for almost 10 years before the
city noticed.. and then tried to pull some permit nonsense to get him to
take it down. Luckily he found a city clerk with half a brian, explained to
them that the FCC handles these matters, and they left him alone.
