Subject: [K3VOA] Help Support the Amateur Radio Parity Act
Message-ID: <a9ced158-a8d3-ec34-1557-5a09a8dbecd0@ARRL.net>

Urge Your Senators To Support The Amateur Radio Parity Act

** It takes just two minutes **

We have an opportunity to positively affect Amateur Radio for years to
come.  H.R. 1301, the Amateur Radio Parity Act, has unanimously passed
the House of Representatives and moved on to the Senate for
consideration.  All you need to do is spend two minutes of your time to
send an email to your two Senators supporting the Bill.  By doing so,
you will have helped the future of Amateur Radio by guaranteeing our
ability to have an effective outdoor antenna in a deed-restricted
community.

The number of people living in such communities grows exponentially
each year.  Often, a ham homeowner has no choice but to live in a
community restricted by covenants.  There are nearly 3/4 of a million
licensed hams in the United States, more than ever before.  But that
may change if we are forced to live in a community that refuses to
allow an antenna.

Help yourself and help your fellow hams.  Go to this link:

<https://arrl.rallycongress.net/ctas/urge-senate-to-support-amateur-radio-parity-act>

Enter your zip code and follow the prompts.  The letters are there. All
you need to do is fill in the blanks, hit save, then send.  If your home
Internet connection has an issue, use your "Smartphone" browser to
submit your letters.  That?s it - in less than 2 minutes and you?re
done.

If you haven?t yet done so, please do so today. I did it and your
voice counts too!

Please bring your HT to work today and join us for the Federal Employees Net at 11:30 am on the K3VOA 2M repeater, 147.045 MHz, 77 Hz PL.


This exercise helps demonstrate how we can use amateur radio to connect federal buildings and other facilities in and around DC when conventional communications are unavailable.


Invite any hams you know who can reach the repeater. All are welcome to check in to the net.
