I believe that I read something that the FCC or someone says that =
Satelite dishes can't be denied. They certainly won't work in an attic.
In my opinion you should ask how you can get in on the payoffs from the =
Cable industry for basically limiting you and your neighbors to =
subscribe to their service.
I'd be willing to bet that some of the rule makers mind everybody elses =
buisness but their own. I guess one can tell that this is a real hot =
button for me. Take all the info you can get and research it and fight =
it to the bitter end.

    Subject: [TowerTalk] Subdivision Deed restrictions
   =20
   =20
    I am on the board of my Ashford West (Houston, Texas) subdivision.=20
   =20
    The existing subdivision deed restrictions were written in 1968, and =
are to continue unchanged until 2008.
    At that time, they automatically renew for 10 year periods, unless =
changed by a majority vote of the subdivision lot owners.
   =20
    Be that as it may, certain board members are of the opinion that =
there needs to be new rules and laws imposed upon our subdivision, more =
in line with other subdivisions around us.
   =20
    The proposed new laws will focus on everything imaginable, =
unimaginable, and deal with anything and everything so as to be a source =
of irritation whenever a homeowner wants to do any activity of any sort.
   =20
    There are the usual statements made in the "new" laws that prohibit:
    satellite antennas
    outside television antennas
    no transmitting antennas of any sort
    no offensive activities
    etc., etc., etc.
   =20
    Basically, what we have here in my subdivision is an attempt to =
replace existing unexpired laws with newer laws of more depth, breadth, =
and personal meddling stupidity.
    The old 3 page subdivision rules which have existed for 30 years =
will now be expanded into a "new and improved" set of 64 page rules
   =20
    Just for a start, so as to supply information input to you, I attach =
the "proposed" new rules section that would address my N5RP amateur =
radio activities.

    Television Antenna Prohibited.
    No television antenna of any type may be erected or maintained on =
any building site except in the attic of a residence without prior =
written consent of the AWC board.
   =20
    8.10.2
    Other Prohibited Antenna.
    In no event shall any antenna or other device be used for =
transmitting electronic signals of any kind. No electronic antenna or =
device of any type, citizen band, "HAM", "CB" or similar radio antenna =
or other television antenna or accessories, except as above provided, =
shall be erected or permitted to remain on any building site or =
elsewhere in the subdivision, or on any residence or other building; =
provided the AWC may approve placement of same.
   =20
    8.10.3
    Satellite Dish Systems.
    No satellite dish system, microwave television antenna or similar =
devices of any type shall be permitted on any building site or elsewhere =
in the subdivision unless approved by the AWC. The AWC may (but shall =
not be required to) permit installation of a satellite dish system, =
microwave television antenna or similar device only if no part of same =
is visible from any street. The provisions hereof shall not apply to any =
satellite dish or similar system maintained by the Association.
