Jim,

I think you misunderstood that remark.

As for newer homes in non-restricted locations ... we bought this  
modular (BIG ONE) sitting on 4.5 acres in 2005.  It was  
built/constructed/placed here in 2002, so it's only 11 years old now.

We prefer modular/one-story construction as there are no steps to  
climb and everything is easy to 'service'.

The 4.5 acres out in 'farm country' has NO zoning restrictions on  
towers/antennas, so I'm in the midst of a long-range plan for multiple  
towers and lots of monobanders and wire antennas!
