While that may be true in some kind of libertarian fantasy land, in reality the FCC (through PRB-1) and the rest of the federal government has a wide range of authority which can impact (or invalidate) local laws. This is why one can't legally buy a newly manufactured machine gun in any state, or start a marijuana commune, even in states where the cannabis has been decriminalized.
That the FCC has chosen not to enforce PRB-1 doesn't mean that the agency doesn't have the authority to do so. The current administration seems to have a more traditional view of the FCC's place in the regulatory landscape than has been the case since Reagan. 73, Scott, N9AA On 4/23/12 2:45 PM, ron wrote: >> RADIO LAW: HAM GATHERING SIGNATURES ON PETITION TO VOID ANTENNA PROHIBITIONS > this is a waste of time as they (FCC) have no jurisdiction over local > laws which differ from community to community. > > 72, > Ron, wb1hga > > ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
