Culver, asking the Commission to determine whether antenna restrictions of the Northridge Farms Homeowners Association Inc. (“Northridge Farms”) restricting installation and placement of television antennas and satellite dishes is preempted by Section 1.4000 of the Commission’s rules (Over-the-Air Reception Devices Rule).
