Contact your Senators: The Amateur Radio Parity Act

The Amateur Radio Parity Act of 2017 was passed unanimously by the House of Representatives in January as H.R. 555.  It provides a mutually satisfactory compromise reached between the American Radio Relay League (ARRL, the national association for Amateur Radio) and the Community Associations Institute (CAI, which represents home owners associations).

The Senate Bill, S.1534, allows for effective outdoor Amateur Radio antennas for public service and emergency communications while protecting the prerogative of community associations.
