Default Re: Household aerial length limitation

Was it ever enforced?

It looks like the sort of thing that might have seemed attractive to a legislator in the early days, thinking that a big aerial would suck all the signal out of the ether and spoil things for others. Or that people living near transmitters could steal electricity.

Anyway, the surprising limitation in the licence has been publicised and no-one has come up with a definite basis. We've had a slight laugh at the silliness of it as well, so let's draw this one towards a close.... Does anyone know anything about the reason for the limitation? Last call!
