Won't work for me. I'm up Bouquet just past Central Park. So I'm surrounded by mountains. Now if I could put up a big juicy tower without pissing off my neighbors....
The FCC says you can erect any type of tower necessary to receive the TV/satellite signals you want, and your neighbors can't stop you. (The FAA may have concerns, however).

From »www.fcc.gov/Bureaus/Cable/Orders···2132.pdf

quote:
Petitioners have installed six masts in the rear of their lot which are secured to the ground by guy wires. There are five masts approximately 30 feet in height which are roughly even with Petitioners' roofline, two of which simply provide support to another mast, and one ten foot mast. Petitioners have affixed five television antennas and three satellite dish antennas to these masts. The antennas provide reception for ten television sets, nine video cassette recorders, and seven satellite receivers.
The neighborhood association complained, but the FCC says it's all legal.

Very true. I was fighting those battles back in the day when I was installing dishes from 10 to 15 feet wide for clients. I went up against cities and associations routinely. Won every time. But now it's MY property, and I have to deal with my wife. In other words, I can do what I choose, but the bitching will be so loud and incessant, I won't have a chance to enjoy the fruits of my labors.

The Wife is a higher authority than the FCC.
