In k,
Royc quipped in an almost smooth criminal way: when the turn off the analoge transmitters, so my tv & video are then not capable of receiving tv, will i still need a tv licence? roy Detune every channel on the tv. And I mean, DE-TUNE all channels. Remove any cables. i.e. satelitte, cable tv, aerial. Then no, you won't need a licence. You only need a licence if you Quote; "watch or record broadcast programmes". |

Then you have no *need* for a TV Licence, since the henious criminal offence is virtually impossible to detect without the "offender's" cooperation. |

Will you be watching TV from some other source such as satellite? If so, you will still need a licence. -- Richard -- "Consideration shall be given to the need for as many as 32 characters in some alphabets" - X3.4, 1963. |

If you were to let a TVL blokey in and he checked your tv, and you haven't detuned it, sometimes you can still pick up a slight signal. TVL nazi storm-trooper will then say, "you are able to receive tv broadcast programmes" and you will be busted. I have mine detuned to some european standard with secam on all 99 channels on my TV. I simply use my TV for XBox and Xbox Media Centre.# |
