Old ham operators on 80 meters talking about rules and regulations that don't exist. On the topic of forest fires, he says that in California "there is an ordinance where the vegetation must come right up your house. You're not allowed to have any separation there."
Sounds crazy right? Because it is. So, TIL about Zone Zero and the five foot rule.

You will likely not get home insurance unless you attest to this. I did learn something, so thanks old hams!
Of course, this conversation was mainly focused on bitching about the 'libs' by calling out things about (majority) Democratic states that Fux Nooz told them.
