This thread is not for those of you who think hams should avoid HOA's at all costs and deserve to suffer accordingly should they be stupid enough to move into one. If that's the way you feel - that's perfectly fine and you're certainly entitled to that opinion. Just skip this thread and move on to someplace else. If you're sick of reading about antenna restrictions and HOA/developer stuff, feel free to also move on as well.

We are about as close as we may ever expect to come with regard to getting HOAs and developers to make "reasonable accomodations" for amateur antennas. What do you realistically think are "reasonable accomodations." What sort of guidelines would you suggest in order to determine the "reasonableness" of accomodations. What sort of safety considerations should be involved. Esthetic considerations? Let's try to be "reasonable" by keeping rants to a minimum.
