H.R. 1301 - Bill to ease antenna restrictions for ham radio antennas

    TO:  All club members!

    The Federal H.R.1301 bill, if enacted, will make it easier for us to
    put up ham radio towers and antennas by relieving restrictions on
    licensed amateurs - similar to what was done for the satellite
    industry and their satellite TV dish antennas.

    What is being proposed here is worth looking at and writing a letter
    to support the bill's passage.

    The Amateur Radio Parity Act of 2015 -- H.R.1301 -- was introduced
    on March 4th in the US House of Representatives. The measure would
    direct the FCC to extend its rules relating to reasonable
    accommodation of Amateur Service communications to private land use
    restrictions.

    HR 1301 will require the FCC to amend its Part 97 Amateur Service
    rules to apply the three-part test of the PRB-1 federal pre-emption
    policy to include homeowners' association regulations and deed
    restrictions, often referred to as "covenants, conditions, and
    restrictions" (CC&Rs).

    All licensed hams are urged to contact their US House of
    Representatives members asking them to sign on to and support the
    bill as a co-sponsor.
