The FCC has invalidated one U.S. city's law challenging satellite antenna installations.

The FCC has declared that federal law protects the right of property owners and tenants to install and use satellite dish antennas even if the antennas are visible from the street. The panel's ruling on January 11th invalidates an ordinance in the city of Chicago, Illinois that restricts such installations. The FCC says that its rule - known as the Over the Air Reception Devices rule, or OTARD - protects the antennas' use and allows video consumers greater choice of content. Chicago had argued that its law, enacted in 2012, was put in place to enforce "aesthetic standards" and that the measure does not violate the federal ruling. The petition had been brought by the Satellite Broadcasting & Communications Association, DirecTV and the DISH Network.

The Over-the-Air Reception Devices Rule does not apply, however, to AM/FM radio, CB radio or amateur radio.
