[ILQSO] On Lake Carlyle...

I'm not sure about "rules" but there is certainly an understanding regarding safety...and parking on a bridge doesn't meet the standard.  If someone wanted to anchor in a body of water, could establish the exact county line and could do so without endangering life, limb, or navigation, I guess I don't see a problem.  Antenna supports might be hard to come by....

There is a rule about "wet" county lines to keep operators from trying to operate from dangerous places such as bridges.
