It can be found in the archives. As I recall, a list member pointed out 
that Federal Law stated that anyone is entitled to Satellite TV, High 
Speed Internet access, and something else which I forgot, and no one can 
prohibit a person from getting it. As a result of the law, anyone can 
put up a satellite dish, no matter what the HOA rules are as Federal Law 
trumps State and Local Law, and agreements.

They even put a link to the site that explained all of this.
