"Accomplice" is a meaningless word with regard to civil contracts.

First let's note that CC&Rs are theoretically contractual obligations.

....

4th, the ideal solution would be for Congress to direct the FCC to exempt
amateur installations from most such contractual obligations, and then

have
the FCC do so, as it did for TV antennas and dishes less than one meter

in
diameter. I don't see that happening in the near future, but we as hams

can
always hope.


Don't forget state law. For example, here in California, we had a statute
protecting satellite dishes a year before the FCC imposed their federal
position.
