We are fortunate, those of us who live in Nevada, to have had a bill passed 
that allows us to erect structures and antennas as such with limited 
intervention by municipalities and government agencies.

Unfortunately, the bill didn't go far enough...it exempts Home Owner 
organizations as well as CC&R's enacted for a local community.  As was 
explained to me, they are private 'governments' and not covered.

Also unfortunately, most new sub-divisions, regardless of acreage, have in 
place, very restrictive rules regarding antennas and towers....even going as 
far as saying no flag-poles on the property.  If one wishes to display the 
flag, they can only have a flag on a 45 degree pole on their front door frame, 
etc.  Flag poles are unsightly and can contain hidden antennas!  LOL.  (I do 
know someone who placed a large tree in his back yard, just so he could hide an 
antenna!)

A few of us are fortunate to live where there are no restrictions....Hi Tom 
T.!!.....

Anywho..I am sure that contacting the ARRL would bring some 'up to date' info 
on tower and antenna friendly areas around the country.
