Today (Wednesday) the Board of Directors and myself had a meeting with the Landlord. The intent of the meeting was to update the building lease to agree with the various operations that are being done at DMS.
The Landlord is not opposed to anything DMS is doing inside their building as long as we meet all building codes, have liability insurance coverage, and that they are informed of any changes. The Landlord will allow antennas on the roof for the Amateur Radio operation, but it must be added to the Lease Agreement. The Board of Directors is putting together verbage for the Lease Addendum which will include other updates for the Automotive Committee, the Amateur Radio SIG, and other areas.
The Amateur Radio SIG needs to get with the BoD with the type of verbage for this Lease Addendum. A description of the antennas, roof locations, mounting techniques, cabling, etc. This is our opportunity to specify what we want. If we state that the antennas may be visible from the road then let’s state it as such. If it is specified in the Lease, then we are legal.
