That's what I was going to say. Any homeowner should have a ladder.

Unless you live in a historical district, you should check your local laws. It's on the onus of the association to show that there's an issue.
Installing Consumer-Owned Antennas and Satellite Dishes
The FCC rules for Over-the-Air-Reception Devices – OTARD – protect a property owner or tenant’s right to install, maintain or use an antenna to receive video programming from direct broadcast satellites, broadband radio services and television broadcast stations.

Where I live was only developed 10 years ago or so. I don't want the dumbass satellite. I just didn't care about removing it when I bought the house.Unless you live in a historical district, you should check your local laws. It's on the onus of the association to show that there's an issue.

when i went to house find in 2017 for my home in topeka, everyone had a HOA. well at least the ones i was interested in, the cheaper houses w/ not good neighborhoods had no HOA
of course if you own "land" vs living in a neighborhood, whats it matter

HOAs are uncommon where I am, it's mostly restricted to new developments.
All I know is that should I ever buy a home I want to be able to do whatever the hell I want with it, Karens be damned.

Yeah but in most cities you need to be pretty far out in the sticks before that's an option. I am deep and moving deeper into the Austin burbs.

I get that being the price to pay to live where you want. Where I am in northern NY is all small suburban and rural towns.
I've lived within about a 25 mile radius of here for my entire life, so I've never lived where there's a HOA. It's all old neighborhoods going back 100-200 years.

water didn't work, it's cold and this faucet is the further away so i thought it was just frozen like always (it's a double sink, so we just use the other one), after applying minute of heat there must be something wrong. disconnected the hose to the faucet and that gushes, but faucet doesn't do anything still. took appart faucet (just the handle really) turns out theres a huge chunk of calcium just there.

The family left on Friday so obviously I had no issues over the weekend. Electrician comes in this morning, I give him the deets. He pops the panel and checks it out, the incoming line, etc. He says he's not sure what the issue is and can't trouble shoot if it isn't happening. I literally turn on every light, fan, and appliance I can. He checks the amps with the amp clamp and highest reading was 5 amps at the breaker level. I told him I'd leave everything on and call him if it started tripping again. I left everything on from 9 am to 4 pm, not a damn breaker tripped. He did point out that they were arc breakers and all the trips were arc faults, no ground faults at all.
His only explanation was that there was an issue on the city level and that arc breakers are really sensitive sometimes. Back to the drawing board I guess

I still wonder about something being loose in your panel. If something is arcing it seems like it would have to be on one of the buses since it's effecting multiple breakers or possibly the neutral although there really shouldn't be any arcing on the neutral. It might be interesting to see if the blown breakers are all on the same leg. It's kind of hard to tell because it's every other breaker that are on the same bus but you could figure it out.
