Hi Pete and all,

The only federal laws regarding towers I know of not being a 
communications law attourney have to do with height vs. siting and have 
to do with land ownership air rights. Unless in an airport glide path 
where height against distance from the end of the runway come into play 
the limit normally is 200 feet HAAT. That's because the property boundary 
extends 200' up, above that is FAA jurisdiction. One other thing, towers 
>150' must be lighted and above 200' special permits are required.

Local ordinances vary widely, the one in West Creek where I used to live 
makes ultimate sense. There is no limit on height but the setback from 
the property line must at least equal the height of the tower so that no 
portion can fall on a neighbor's property. HOA Nazis are a beast of 
another color, not only do they hate antennas but everything about the 
dwelling and property and even parking must conform to their Draconian 
rules.

Boxes, pretty boxes
They're all made out of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same.

Back in the 50s Pete Seeger wrote a song about Levittown, Long Island and 
it's only gotten worse.

Since you mentioned Britain and the Cold War days I may as well digress a 
little. It's worse here, MUCH worse, I'm sure everyone knows about our 
health care debacle. SO many countries have socialized medicine and it 
WORKS WELL but not here where Capatalism rules to the point where now 
insurance companies (HMOs) dictate the level of care a patient receives 
and it's seldom up to needs. The short story is something that was never 
foreseen but as expected, Cold War "socialism is BAD" propaganda come 
back to bite America in the nether reaches.
