Hi,

For ongoing topic on antenna restrictions and related subject go he

http://www.eham.net/forums/AntennaRestrictions


I also live in a restricted lower middle class working guy/gal development (
PUD)

all new construction in the area had these restricted covenants. No way
around it
unless you buy older homes in older neighborhoods and you may pay a lot of
money
for smaller home but well built and no restrictions.

Most restrictions duplicate local rules, like letting the lawn grow a foot
tall or parking
any cars on the front lawn or backyard, etc...

a few crazy people on our board, one rides his mobility scooter and takes
photos of any
and all things he don't like, get a life pal ! he is crazy.

As you will read in the above eham topic, one poster points out that the
homes in the
big buck area like beverly hills etc, have NO RESTRICTIONS and many are hams
!

he also writes that these restrictions do nothing to increase home values.

do visit the above link very informative

73 and keep it stealth !

Hello All!

I live in San Diego and have been a PBS supporter for many years. An
article in this months "On Air" PBS magazine has made my day! The
article is on page #3. It is written by the General Manager of the tv
station. I have not read the document in question, but it does sound too
good to be true. How curious are you? If you live in San Diego, you
might find a copy in your local library.

In essence he says that the:

"...[Federal] government will defend your right to crawl up on the roof
and put up a BIG, HONKING antenna, despite the protests of nosy
neighbors, community planners, rental management companies, local
governemnt bureaucrats and other meddlesome busybodies."

Want to know how? Here is the URL:

Now you may have to prove to "the opposition" that the antenna you have
erected can indeed receive "local" television stations, but that should
not be that difficult to do...
