(Antennas) ANTENNA ZONING ARRL8217

Antenna Zoning for the Radio Amateur **
-- By Fred Hopengarten, K1VR

Everything you and your attorney need to know to obtain a permit for your antenna-support system.

Don't let the confusing tangle of ordinances and by-laws keep you from installing the antenna you need in order to communicate effectively! In recent years, many cities and towns have enacted ordinances designed mainly to regulate cellular antenna structures. Unfortunately, hams have sometimes been caught in the backlash of regulatory overkill. This book describes proven techniques and strategies that a ham and his or her attorney can use to obtain an antenna-structure permit (also includes material on Canadian law and regulation).
