OK, Jim, you got me on that one !! 

Nonetheless, Coilers, take a lesson from the ham operators:  
Just about every ham radio operator is legal according to 
Uncle Charlie, however, irate neighbors can be very creative 
with their arsenals of torture.  Zoning laws, deed restrictions,
local ordinances, neighborhood associations and civil lawsuits
are all regularly inflicted by folks who dont like to see the 
antennas of legal hams.  The FCC is reasonable and open 
minded compared to irate neighbors on a witch hunt.

Coilers could be subject to the same.
