Re: [TowerTalk] Ice Storm Damage

["Floyd Sense" <fsense@copper.net>]

Have you had any other claims against your homeowners policy in the past 2 
or 3 years?  If not, you may be OK.  If so, the company is likely to cancel 
your homeowners insurance (or not renew it).  Size of claim seems to make no 
difference.  I suggest you look into specific ham radio insurance (Ham Radio 
Insurance Associates is one, ARRL is another) for all-risk insurance for 
your radios, PCs, and antennas/towers.  It makes no sense to risk your 
homeowners policy for a few hundred bucks.  Your agent won't be of much help 
if the company decides to cancel you.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Ice Storm Damage


I know I have seen post about people submitting damage claims on antennas 
and towers to their home owner insurance.  This ice storm brought down my 
ground mounted vertical, the tower and tribander is ok so far.  Any advice 
on taking or not taking a claim on home owners on the vertical?
Thanks
