Hi John,
I know moving is a big pain. I recently had to do it myself. I was
fortunate enough to be able to buy a house. If you are able to buy or rent
something in a subdivision I would go to or call the county courthouse to
see if there are any restrictive covenants on installing antennas in that
area. I looked at buying several houses until I found out I couldn't put up
antennas. So I passed on them and bought one in an area where there were no
restrictions on antennas.
Good Luck.

Hi John;
Sorry about the move. Do you have antennas that have to come down? If you
are looking at a trailer park, you might want to discuss antennas with the
park owner and pay particular attention to how close you will be to your
neighbor and how much antenna room you will really have. In some cases
trailers can be packed in like sardines.
Best of luck
Richard

Well, I've been given my notice, as usual at a pretty bad time, but anyway.
It looks as if I"m being forced to move. Does anyone have advice on how I
should look in to antenna limitations? do you just ask? look at paperwork?
ask forgiveness later? I'm thinking a trailer is my best option since
there's no possible way I can ever afford a house, even that will put me to
1 meal a day for a few months but I have a better chance of putting up an
antenna or 2 with out complaint there than at an apartment building and I'd
doubt if I can afford to rent a house either.
To those interested, yes that means there will be equipment for sale, I
can't move all I have now. Likely I'll put everything up for sale and what
ever goes goes, but if the 570 goes I keep the 706 or the other way around,
stuff like that. I'm not ready yet, I have to see if the person throwing me
out is very serious about it and will actually help me fill out the
paperwork, but once we start looking, or I start looking and stuff is
looking like it will materialize, I'll do that. Of course, the main
complaint from family is rides so I have no clue how I'll ship it, I'll
probably have to have it picked up by ups or something. I'll worry about
that when the time comes, I'm very far from happy about this but saw it
coming 2 years ago. I didn't think it would be this ugly, but oh well.
THK2AT is probably becoming available soon if anyone wants to make me an
offer for it. I'll sell the lesser used stuff peace meal first to make the
big sale smaller.
