There is no height limit for amateur antenna Jerry, just a limit where 
paperwork must be filed with the FCC (and FAA) telling them "hey 
I'm installing a tower" and have them bless it. They send you back 
something that describes location and height, as well as marking 
requirements.

I picked paint and red lights, because it isn't as obnoxious as white 
strobes.
