Another Ham – Another HOA Hassle

Nancy lives in a community for people aged 55 and older. The home-owner’s association banned her from putting up any kind of antenna. John Amodeo, producer of the hit TV show “Last Man Standing” (starring Tim Allen, himself a ham radio operator) and I traveled to Florida to see what we could do to make a 39 ft long antenna, fit in a 23 ft long attic!

Support The Amateur Radio Parity Act of 2015

Let’s finally stop the HOA Gestapo from preventing the 23% of American households who live in HOA communities from having effective ham radio antennas.

The Amateur Radio Parity Act of 2015 — H.R.1301 in the US House of Representative and S 1685 in the US Senate —  would direct the FCC to extend its rules relating to reasonable accommodation of Amateur Service communications to private land use restrictions. US Rep Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) introduced HR 1301 on March 4 with 12 original cosponsors from both sides of the aisle — seven Republicans and five Democrats in the US House.  US Senator Roger Wicker (R-MS) introduced S 1685 on June 26, with Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) as the original cosponsor, into the US Senate.

The Amateur Radio Parity Act would 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). At present, PRB-1 only applies to state and local zoning laws and ordinances. The FCC has been reluctant to extend the same legal protections to include private land-use agreements without direction from Congress.

H.R. 1301 has been referred to the House Energy and Commerce Committee. Rep Greg Walden, W7EQI (R-OR), chairs that panel’s Communications and Technology Subcommittee, which will consider the measure. S 1685 has been referred to the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee’s subcommittee on Communications, Technology, Innovation and the Internet, which is chaired by the bill’s sponsor, Wicker.

ARRL members are urged to contact their members of both the House and the Senate, asking them to sign on to the bill as a co-sponsor. Route letters for your member of Congress to:

ARRL
Attn  HR 1301 grassroots campaign
225 Main St
Newington CT 06111

For more information on both of the bills, please refer to the information in the two areas below – HR 1301 for information about the House version and S 1685 for the Senate version.

DIY Automatic Tune Magnetic Loop Antenna By GM4WZG
DIY Automatic Tune Magnetic Loop Antenna By GM4WZG

DIY Automatic Tune Magnetic Loop Antenna By GM4WZG

The Small Do It Yourself Automatic Tune Magnetic Loop Antenna that he made is only 1 meter in diameter yet it has more or less the performance of a full size dipole – and has an amazing control box.  

Magnetic Loops are easy in concept but like many things, you can either make a super-deluxe version with automatic controllers or just keep it simple.

The version presented here is portable, and has a fully automatic tuning system that links to the CAT port of an FT-817.

A single press of a button initiates a tuning sequence and that’s all that is needed to get this antenna on frequency.

For an antenna that is one meter across, standing 1.5 meters above ground this is a formidable result. You’re going to be 2 s-points down on a doublet/dipole on 40m but if you’re operating from a hotel balcony, portable in the countryside or just at home where normal antennas are not allowed, it is not just a compromise antenna, it is a real antenna.

Neumann KH 310 D Left Active Studio Monitor with Digital Input and Delay, 300W Full AC Output, 75Ohms BNC and 110Ohms XLR Impedance

Neumann KH 310 D Left Active Studio Monitor with Digital Input and Delay, 300W Full AC Output, 75Ohms BNC and 110Ohms XLR Impedance

  • Powerful alloy fabric dome provides low-distortion high frequency sound reproduction
  • Elliptical Mathematically Modeled Dispersion (MMD) waveguide, with wide horizontal and narrow vertical dispersion provides smoother off-axis response for more forgiving and diverse acoustic environments and reduced reflections off the mixing console
  • New in-house simulated drivers is used to latest modeling techniques to minimize non-linear (inter-modulation) distortion
  • Fabric dome, neodymium magnet, midrange driver is used to dedicated midrange driver to reproduce important midrange frequencies, which is especially important for speech and vocals with a faster transient response and less breakup modes than cone designs
  • Long throw composite sandwich cone bass driver with Extremely Linear Force Factor (ELFF) & ribbed surround provides damping of break-up modes & low distortion at high sound levels. It gives a low harmonic distortion even at high excursions with reduced radial break-up modes on the ribbed surround

The Neumann KH 310 D Left Active Studio Monitor with Digital Input and Delay features a Mathematically Modeled Dispersion Waveguide (MMD), flexible acoustical controls, various input options (analog and digital) and an extensive range of mounting hardware. This allows the loudspeaker to be used in diverse acoustical conditions, with any source equipment and in a wide variety of physical locations. The KH 310 represents the latest in acoustic and electronic simulation and measurement technologies
