Please read what I said. If an association you joined when you purchased your home thus agreeing to follow their rules, has a rule that requires you to seek approval, can enforce that rule. What they can't enforce is saying no to your request.
We read what you said, and we are telling you, you are wrong on this.
The HOA CAN NOT make you ask for approval first. What they can ask is that you tell them you are putting up a dish. But, that process can not cause any type of delay. So I would read that as... calling them up, telling them, and then hanging up before they have any time to object.
Where do I get this you ask... off the FCC OTARD Fact Sheet
FCC Fact Sheet on Placement of Antennas
"Although a simple notification process might be permissible, such a process cannot be used as a prior approval requirement and may not delay or increase the cost of installation. The burden is on the association to show that a notification process does not violate our rule."
And the thing about them harassing an individual person... I would welcome the challenge. I'd let them do their thing for a few months,meanwhile documenting everything, taking video, pictures, ect... then I'd hand them over to my lawyer and sue the HOA for anything you can squeeze out of them.
You can't harass someone for not following stupid HOA rules, when there are FCC regulations in place that overrule the HOA... and some HOA's need to learn that.
