[TVARC] Second Thoughts on HR555

[K2PS Pete Stafford]

Good point about the recollections of our aged neighbors.  I know I sure
contributed to those "TVI" memories: I can still picture the neighbor in the
NYC apartment across the courtyard from me, shaking his fist in my direction
as I keyed the 75 watt Globe Chief Deluxe on 40 meters!

Good thought about the still-to-be-built areas in the south perhaps being a
place for a club station.

I agree that HR555 does not look like it will help us much if at all.  I
read Jim's assessment and agree with him.  His bio clearly shows he knows
what he is talking about.  I also know Fred, K1VR from my YCCC days.  He
helped a number of NE hams with PRB-1 issues, all pro bono!  I was pissed at
an earlier commentary attributed to one of the League's DC lawyers blasting
Fred as a second-rate lawyer.

I doubt we will ever see an overt antenna structure in The Villages because
of the long-lasting RFI issues villagers have from their youth with respect
to hams.  (Maybe in 40 years when today's wired generation moves in it will
change.)  

I wonder if the club ought to pursue a club station with an overt antenna
structure in the one of the future villages to the south.  With all the land
The Villages has bought, surely there is some place out of sight of the
aesthically sensitive types where we can be.  If a new police/fire
substation were to be built in the new villages a small room and tower on
the edge of the complex would be great.  It would also serve as an
auxilliary EMCOM asset when needed.
