[Towertalk] Ham friendly CC&Rs?

[Jim White]

BE VERY CAREFUL HERE - SPECIFYING WHAT IS AND ISN'T OK CAN COME BACK TO BITE
YOU AND OTHERS....

RECOMMEND YOU WORK WITH THE ARRL ON THIS - YOU MIGHT TRY THE ANTENNA LAW
REFLECTOR, TOO...

Like I say this can get messy - with the best interests you can
inadvertantly do more harm than good....note that the FAA reg is 200 foot
for towers....hence reason for using it as a reference...no "specialized"
height was introduced for ham radio and as such blanket acceptance of a
certain height as being ok so far has been avoided...

I have climber 199 foot towers....and known guys who wish they were allowed
to be just a little higher for stacking lf yagis - but - 200 foot will fit a
lot of the ham populations requirements!

GL - careful!

73,

Jim, K4OJ
