[TowerTalk] Amateur Radio Tower Ordinances

[JOHN OWENS]

If they do not have a specific requirement for ham radio towers, then it sounds like you do not have a requirement. Federal Regulation PRB-1 requires that municipalities provide reasonable accomodation to the installation of ham radio towers. I would not try to talk them into any thing. If you are a member of the ARRL, contact them. They deal with this issue on a daily basis and know the laws. John Owens -  N7TK

My new QTH doesn’t have anything specific for Ham Radio but they do for commercial towers and Public Communications Services (PCS) towers. PCS is something specific in FCC parlance and shouldn’t be applied to Amateur Radio IMHO. I’m hoping to talk them into creating a simple reasonable ordinance based on successful application elsewhere.
