AMSAT President Testifies Regarding Antenna Restrictions

On January 24, 2008 AMSAT President Rick Hambly W2GPS testified before the Maryland State Senate Judicial Proceedings Committee in support of Senate Bill 80 that would prohibit “homeowners associations from restricting or prohibiting the design, placement, screening, height, or use of specified amateur radio equipment.” It is hoped that we will also get a hearing before a House committee in a few weeks. There was no opposition to this bill during the hearing, unlike previous years. For more information see: http://mlis.state.md.us/2008rs/billfile/sb0080.htm and http://n3ij.home.comcast.net/.
