This has been in process by the ARRL for 3 years and the FCC said they would not address the "private contract" (CC&Rs) SO, the ARRL went to congress and THEY TOLD THE FCC to gather information about the impediments to amateur radio communications and emergency communications in particular by the home owners restrictions (CC&Rs). We have never had a chance like this and will not likely have one again in our lifetime to supply them with what they are being forced to "study" (and WITH the help and assistance of the ARRL). I do not think much of this "petition" having any effect at all except to make people think they did something and prevent them from doing what we have been requested to do by the ARRL. Go to www. arrl.org - click on Regulatory and Advocacy - on the left side, click on Federal - on the left side, click on CCR Study Information - Please read about "Overview of FCC Land Use Restriction Study" - PLEASE respond. - The deadline is April 25 for getting your information to the ARRL. There is a form you can fill out online and there is an email for you to attach your CC&Rs and an explanation of your radio installation as well as how well/poorly it functions and what you were prevented from installing. url is www.arrl.org/ccr-regulations and the email is ccri...@arrl.org . This is a VALID way of responding and is likely our ONLY chance. If you don't care about your hobby, don't do a thing. 73, de Jim KG0KP ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
