Antenna Zoning : For the Radio Amateur
Book Description 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. What to do when things turn ugly after your antenna system is up. 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). You will learn ways to respond to a wide variety of complaints after the permit has been obtained, if the town, or your neighbors, turn sour. Publisher Description We are pleased to offer this new book, written by Fred Hopengarten, K1VR, a prominent attorney in the communications-law field (and a noteworthy contest operator as well). In the last five years a huge body of regulations in the form of ordinances and bylaws has sprung up in towns and cities across the country, mainly in reaction to the increasing number of cellular telephone towers being erected. Hams have sometimes been caught inadvertently in the resulting crazy quilt of regulations. Fred has written this book to help the ham navigate the thicket of ordinances and bylaws, with the goal of obtaining a building permit for an antenna system. After all -- no antenna, no ham radio! In his many years of practice as a communications-law attorney, Fred has seen the full gamut of emotional issues that can arise at public hearings. He goes through them in exhaustive but delightful detail, and explains the best approach to each issue. Freds lively, conversational tone minimizes the numbing "legalese" often used by lawyers. Numerous sample letters in Microsoft Word format are on the CD-ROM that accompanies the book. The ham (or his/her lawyer) can customize these letters to suit the circumstances peculiar to each case. The CD ROM also has a wealth of precedent setting legal cases and other reference materials, in Adobe Reader PDF format. Any ham seeking a building permit for an antenna structure will be well served by this book. It is especially useful to help bring your local attorney up to speed on relevant communications issues and case law. Training your attorney in this way can save many hours and many dollars. Reader Reviews For those who find themselves facing potential new, adverse local government regulation, ARRL has recently released a new publication, Antenna Zoning for the Radio Amateur by Fred Hopengarten, K1VR. This is an excellent new publication that provides a lot of material to help you as you approach local governing bodies to be able to put up an antenna. There is a CD ROM with documents you can use directly to aid your efforts. The book may seem a bit pricey ..., but if you find that you are in need of an attorney's services in your quest, you can save more than the cost of this book in attorney's fees because the book provides a treasure chest of material your attorney will not have to search out! I highly recommend this book! Comment | | (Report this)
