[Elecraft] HAM GATHERING SIGNATURES ON PETITION TO VOID ANTENNA PROHIBITIONS

[David Christ]

I'll not disagree with you but my view is more cynical.  It's all 
about the money.  From what I see, many of the things in CC&Rs are 
put there by the developer to ensure no one does anything to reduce 
his ability to sell units for top dollar.  Things like permitted 
colors, no cars parked outside, no chain link fences, no split level 
and on and on.  Since most people are not affected by these they 
willingly accept them.  Once in place no Association is willing to 
change them for fear of reducing values.  Since they are so prevalent 
in new developments and have been for many years it has the effect of 
red lining for hams.
