Chris,
Do you need any backup?. I would love to hear why he thinks this is such a good deal. If this is such a good deal then the ARRL has done a rotten job of selling it to the members. 73, Ron, K5HM <mailto:k5hm....@gmail.com> k5hm....@gmail.com <http://www.qrz.com/db/k5hm> www.qrz.com/db/k5hm Excelsior!

To give HOAs such power as proposed is totally against what the original relief of the proposed bill was supposed to provide. Amateurs NEED some relief from HOAs and this bill does NOT provide it. It must be KILLED or withdrawn and revamped ASAP. As a broadcast engineer and owner (KLLS 1300), I cannot believe this legislation was allowed to get this far with the ARRL HQ help. I am a life member of the ARRL and DEMAND the BoD withdraw support for this bill and draft a new one in the spirit that this was originally intended; to allow amateurs to put up reasonable antennas WITHOUT HOA approval (similar to PRB-1 for Over The Air Reception Devices). Otherwise, this proposed bill will kill any chance of an amateur radio operator in a HOA controlled area from ever able to install ANY antennas (HF or VHF/UHF) and will lead to those who have been operating with stealth antennas having to face fines and dismantled such antennas. Shame on the ARRL BoD for allowing this to even get to this point. Regards, Christopher W.
