Hello To All,

    On Monday, I had the joy of contacting the Los Angeles County Planning Department. The question I had was/is; what is(if any) the tower and antenna height limit for an AMATEUR RADIO station(operator) living within Los Angeles County, in County area(meaning not in an incorporated area)?All though the question is simple enough, the answer has not been easy to get, in fact I'm still waiting for a "corrected" response. The initial response I got from a "regional planner" was, "communication towers, 35 feet!" I immediately corrected him and stated its not a "communications tower" but rather a "Amateur Radio Tower". He paused and then replied, "oh.... I see, I will have to look  in to this and I'll get back to you."

    Well, I'm still waiting.

    Does any local stations have any information on this matter?


Thank You in Advance.
