A better argument on the antenna issue vs HOA's is that there are exceptions
for TV antennas and Sat. Dishes as well as broad band internet antennas. All
of these are corporate based profit making ventures. Nobody forces one to use
these services but they are granted an exception. This is why it is
compareable discrimination. I mean religion and following one's faith is a
choice and discrimantion against religion is not tolerated.
Granted we cant all raise pigs in our back yard, but city ordinances deal with
that as well.
As for the upper band use again I ask, what are we doing with it on a regular
basis that takes up all that spectrum and where's the plan to do something with
it. Trading it for lower band security and reasonable exceptions to CC&R's in
congress may be our best use of these bands for all of Ham Radio.
Its an Idea, be offended if you like. Twist it ro a rover discusion if you
must. I always thought of it as a lively debate. And even if you're wrong, you
care about the future of ham radio.
