Put it in the middle of the yard. If the XYL don't like it, tell her
what you said here for your reasoning. If she don't like

I personally do NOT comprehend why anyone doing Ham stuff would move

I would research all the applicable rules/regulations/laws....then if
your height is exempt....don't rock the boat.
If the old crab complains.......well....so what? No legal grounds...no
problem.
