Just a heads up and a need for action (link near bottom):
The campaign, announced in an https://arrl.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT0zNDM5NzM0JnA9MSZ1PTUyMDM0OTE0OSZsaT0zOTc0NDkyNg/index.html on September 17, 2025, follows the reintroduction of the Amateur Radio Emergency Preparedness Act in February 2025 (see https://arrl.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT0zNDM5NzM0JnA9MSZ1PTUyMDM0OTE0OSZsaT0zOTc0NDkyNw/index.html ). The bipartisan bills -- https://arrl.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT0zNDM5NzM0JnA9MSZ1PTUyMDM0OTE0OSZsaT0zOTc0NDkyOA/index.html in the House and https://arrl.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT0zNDM5NzM0JnA9MSZ1PTUyMDM0OTE0OSZsaT0zOTc0NDkyOQ/index.html in the Senate -- are designed to prevent restrictive homeowners’ association (HOA) rules that currently prohibit or severely limit the installation of amateur radio antennas, even when such antennas are hidden in trees, placed in attics, mounted on vehicles, or look like flagpoles.
“This legislation is about restoring equal rights to licensed Amateur Radio operators,” said ARRL President Rick Roderick. “These restrictions hinder not only the enjoyment of Amateur Radio, but also its vital role in emergency communication during disasters.”
Public Support Needed for Passage
To advance the legislation, ARRL is calling on its members and all licensees of the US Amateur Radio Service to take action by sending letters to their congressional representatives. Through a dedicated online tool at https://arrl.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT0zNDM5NzM0JnA9MSZ1PTUyMDM0OTE0OSZsaT0zOTc0NDkzMA/index.html , hams can easily generate and submit pre-drafted letters with a few clicks.
Go to — https://arrl.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT0zNDM5NzM0JnA9MSZ1PTUyMDM0OTE0OSZsaT0zOTc0NDkzMA/index.html
— and help us by sending your letters to your Representative and Senators.
73, Jim
