So you want to complain ... #hamradio #ARRL

 Living in a Homeowners Association property or community with tower ordinances that won't allow your 50-foot tower?  

How about being a PART of your community, rather than a resident of it?

For years, the author has served on community boards.  One such board is your City Planning Commission.  That group writes the planning and zoning items that residents are asked to observe.

How about volunteering to serve on the board?  When a ham wants to put up a 50-foot tower when only a 35-foot one is allow, would you want someone on the committee that understands the goal?

In the years of service, not one ham has asked for a variance.  Rather, there are more willing to complain.  

Nevertheless, folks are there to be helpful.

Didn't get your variance or live in an HOA?  RemoteHams is your ticket for worldwide communications worldwide. 

Set up your remote at a friends house who has a tall tall tower.  Use RemoteHams to control it.  Clubs, there's an idea for you for that ARRL grant program may provide.  Isn't there a repeater already on that tall tall tower with room for an HF transceiver and antenna?

Control is granted by administrators.  Real time remote of frequency, mode, power, and even approving, removing, and banning users is provided.

Was it Hannibal that said "I will find a way or make one"?  Time to make a way.
