[Towertalk] ABC Home Owners Assoc Expose

[Carl - WC4H]

Florida just passed a law that lets ANYBODY have a flagpole...even with a
HOA and CCRs...

Fortunatel, there are several Flagpole verticals out there now that cover
many bands.  So at least there's an out for folks. Not quite the same as a
tower and beams, but if a HOA tries to prevent it, the person can SUE the
HOA!

I'm thinking of putting up a multiband flagpole antenna in the front yard to
phase with a vertical in the back yard.
