You could try contacting the ARC but you might have better luck with Community Standards.

You can always call Customer Service who would point you in the right direction.

The Villages tried to ban outdoor television antennas but they are not allowed to by federal law. Someone reported The Villages to the FCC and The Villages lost.

People have posted the fcc law website in posts in this thread. I believe there are two FCC websites listed in this thread but you can also google to find them.

What we did before having an antenna installed was ring the doorbell of homes with antennas. We were new here & I was surprised how friendly they were and many invited us into their home for demos.

Everyone we talked to upgraded the standard installation with a taller, stronger mast as TV is in a fringe area & the higher stronger antenna is best. Get the upgrade price before they come out as they liike to lowball over the phone & then tell what you really need at a higher price when they come out.

Ask the installer if they ground the the coax from the antenna before it enters the attic and also ground the mask according to the required code.

We got the CM-4228HD aka EXTREMEtenna 80 with a upgraded preamp & taller stronger mast.
