Action on Amateur Radio Parity Act

H.R. 1301, the so-called Amateur Radio Parity Act, which would guarantee hams living in deed-restricted developments the right to "effective outdoor … antennas," was passed by the House of Representatives on September 12 by a voice vote.

At press time, the bill was still awaiting action in the Senate and the ARRL was urging all amateurs to contact their senators in support of the legislation.
