Hopefully I didn't confuse anyone with my last post. I got my answer 
this morning and probably should have waited before posting this 
question. Down the road this might help someone in a search and I'm not 
affiliated in any way with this program.
I was looking at liability insurance for a new repeater at a commercial 
site; with the ARRL plan you need to be an affiliated club with at least 
51% membership to qualify, they will not insure individuals; the 
homeowners part mentioned below is separate and is based on blocks of 
stated value. Got that straight from the company in Chicago.
Sorry again for any confusion and I won't belabor this anymore :)

73,

Tony
