Tracking chips in HD radios

"Tester" wrote in message g... The Brits used to send around vans to detect TV receivers in the possession of people without a TV receiving license. They still do. Not anymore. As the system is completely computerised and based on the fact that some 99 per cent of homes have a TV it is really a simple a matter of checking up on those that the computer says do not have a licence. This is done by post and if you do not have a TV then you are required to declare so on a form. If you fail to do that then there will eventually be a knock on the door. This will happen every year - I know because there was a period of some 10 years when I did not have a TV and had to go through this hoop each year. Now I have a TV and pay for my licence by direct debit and they leave me alone. If you do see a 'detector' van then it is probably Ofcom looking into an RFI problem. Not that they do much of that these days. Charlie. -- www.wymsey.co.uk |
