I know this came up a couple of years ago with regard to TV dishes. As I 
recall, it was settled favorably, but I can't recall the details.

In any event, does he have your signature on a contract in which you 
agree *specifically not* to put up your antenna? If the only thing he 
has to go by is a home owners' association regulation, you might want to 
look up the Pink Flamingo case.

A homeowners' association in Northern Virginia (MacLean, if I recall 
correctly) took someone to court over some lawn ornaments. The judge 
threw the case out and stated flatly that a homeowners' association has 
no legal standing. Their sole recourse is to expel a member for 
non-compliance with the regulations.
