From WIA News for 22nd July 2017 :
The Amateur Radio Parity Act of 2017 was introduced in the US Senate on July 12, marking another step forward for this landmark legislation.
The measure will, for the first time, guarantee all radio amateurs living in deed-restricted communities governed by a homeowner's association or subject to any private land use regulations, the right to erect and maintain effective outdoor antennas at their homes.
In a statement, ARRL said it looks forward to working with the bipartisan leadership of the Senate and the Commerce Committee to help move the legislation through the Senate and to President Trump's desk.
ED Comment:
That's the USA for you. The local governments in Australia don't even have common rules regarding antennas...
Does the "effective outdoor antennas" term mean 100 metre high towers with full size yagis for 40 metres on them ?
