Dear ARRL Roanoke Division Member:

By now you should have received the Member Bulletin announcing that ARRL
needs your help with generating support in Congress for the passage of
the Amateur Radio Emergency Preparedness Act. Whether you live in a
neighborhood or subdivision with antenna restrictions or not, we need
ALL licensed Amateur Radio operators to support this legislation. ARRL
has designed an easy campaign. Go to https://send-a-letter.org/hoa/ ,
insert your Amateur Radio callsign, check to make sure your name and
address are correct, then click the big red button that says, “Send My
Letters”. It’s that simple. Your letters will be hand delivered to
your Representative and Senators by your Washington legislative team.

Because of work, school or other family needs, many Hams are forced to
live in communities with private land restrictions that prohibit the
installation of Amateur Radio antennas outside t heir residence, and may
not have the choice to choose to live in an area without such
restrictions. Over time, severe constraints imposed by recorded private
land use restrictions have been overturned by Federal law, such as the
prohibitions against satellite TV dishes, TV antennas, wireless internet
antennas, and even flag poles. However, Amateur Radio operators are
still denied the right to put up antennas, even simple ones. While you
may live now in an area without such restrictions, the time may come
when you might have to move to one with these constraints. That’s why
we need EVERYONE to support this campaign.

If not for you, then for your current and future fellow Amateur Radio
operators, please support this bill. Go to
https://send-a-letter.org/hoa/ and send your letters — it will be a
step to protecting the future of Amateur Radio. Look for updates soon.
Many thanks for your consideration and support.

73,

Jim Boehner, N2ZZ, ARRL Roanoke Division Director

Bill Morine, N2COP, ARRL Roanoke Division Vice Director
