Don’t worry Equalizier you HOA can’t mess with the FCC.

The rule (47 C.F.R. Section 1.4000) has been in effect since October 1996, and it prohibits restrictions that impair the installation, maintenance or use of antennas used to receive video programming. The rule applies to video antennas including direct-to-home satellite dishes that are less than one meter (39.37″) in diameter (or of any size in Alaska), TV antennas, and wireless cable antennas. The rule prohibits most restrictions that: (1) unreasonably delay or prevent installation, maintenance or use; (2) unreasonably increase the cost of installation, maintenance or use; or (3) preclude reception of an acceptable quality signal.

Effective January 22, 1999, the Commission amended the rule so that it also applies to rental property where the renter has an exclusive use area, such as a balcony or patio.

On October 25, 2000, the Commission further amended the rule so that it applies to customer-end antennas that receive and transmit fixed wireless signals. This amendment became effective on May 25, 2001.

The rule applies to individuals who place antennas that meet size limitations on property that they own or rent and that is within their exclusive use or control, including condominium owners and cooperative owners, and tenants who have an area where they have exclusive use, such as a balcony or patio, in which to install the antenna. The rule applies to townhomes and manufactured homes, as well as to single family homes.

A: The rule applies to the following types of antennas:

(1) A “dish” antenna that is one meter (39.37″) or less in diameter (or any size dish if located in Alaska) and is designed to receive direct broadcast satellite service, including direct-to-home satellite service, or to receive or transmit fixed wireless signals via satellite.

(2) An antenna that is one meter or less in diameter or diagonal measurement and is designed to receive video programming services via broadband radio service (wireless cable) or to receive or transmit fixed wireless signals other than via satellite.

(3) An antenna that is designed to receive local television broadcast signals. Masts higher than 12 feet above the roofline may be subject to local permitting requirements.

In addition, antennas covered by the rule may be mounted on “masts” to reach the height needed to receive or transmit an acceptable quality signal (e.g. maintain line-of-sight contact with the transmitter or view the satellite). Masts higher than 12 feet above the roofline may be subject to local permitting requirements for safety purposes. Further, masts that extend beyond an exclusive use area may not be covered by this rule.

Thanks Jim for the info.

While you people were dancing in the street, my Internet militia got TW to back off from their metering plan for now. What have I started? Next, my mob will want unlimited cell phone pricing.

When I warned that certain politicos would not win last year, I’m sure that mobilized the internet mob for a call to action to combat that prediction.

So here’s another salvo: my prediction is that all the props in May election 1A-1E will pass and CA taxes will go up.

OK mob: go forth and do what must be done.

Funny, i got into another pissing match with Time Warner 2 months after i stopped being their customer….Basically, it appears TW wants an extra $5 for a remote control to a cable box that they said i didn’t return….in 2007…..Why oh why are they raising a stink about this now two years later, is beyond me (and yes, I did drop off the box + remote)

Time Warner sucks….A BK would not shed a tear from me.

ATT Uverse rocks!
