where on the island????????




I lived in the Levittown/East Meadow area of Long Island. That was the
place where the very first Levitt homes were built. If you look on the
map at where Newbridge Road and Wantagh Parkway intersect, I lived
within a half mile northeast of there.

Is the CB radio active in Nassau or Suffolk County? Here it's extremely
dead, except for an occasional truck driver on Channel 19. Ten years
ago or more it was a totally different story here. But because the
riff-raff drove the decent people away to ham, GMRS or online, it's dead
at nights here in Las Vegas.

Speaking about property, here in Las Vegas the houses are built so close
together that you can actually climb to the roof of your by climbing
someone else's. There is very little space between houses, even though
we have enough desert to go around. Outside the metropolitan Las Vegas
area (Las Vegas, Henderson, Boulder City, North Las Vegas, Summerlin,
etc.), it's still open land. Furthermore, most new homes built here are
part of some type of homeowners association. Most of these
organizations forbid the use of CB and ham antennae placed on the roof
of the house.

To be frank and honest, sometimes I wish I had enough money to buy the
same house I lived in when I was in Levittown. The 60'x100' property is
spacious compared to the houses here, which are like Brooklyn and Queens
in the desert. Also there I can set up my CB antenna without any
neighbors or homeowners associations giving me any guff about it.
