Help Pass The HOA Legislation To Eliminate HOA Prohibitions on Amateur Radio Antennas!!!

How Can I help?

By sending a letter to each of your Congressional Representatives and your Senators. Is my individual letter important? YES — Representatives and Senators rely on constituent input to decide which bills to support. Your voice counts. You don’t have to be an ARRL member; show your approval for these bills by visiting 

Send A Letter

The ARRL has successfully obtained Congressional support — both in the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate — to introduce legislation that, if passed, will eliminate HOA/private land use restrictions prohibiting Amateur Radio operators from installing antennas at their residences.
