[Wireless Telegraphy Act 1949]
"1 Licensing of wireless telegraphy

(1)No person shall establish or use any station for wireless
telegraphy or instal or use any apparatus for wireless telegraphy
except under the authority of a licence in that behalf granted under
this section_

(a)by the Secretary of State (unless it is a television licence)

Nice and accurate. I hold another licence, issued by Ofcom, on behalf of
the Secretary of State.

That licence allows me to:-

establish and use
stations or install and use radio transmitting and receiving
apparatus for wireless telegraphy in accordance with the terms
conditions and limitations set out in section 2 of this licence.

It's clear to me that this licence covers the use of the TV. And under
the 1949 act, it overrides the requirements for a TV licence. :-)

Can you copy the correspondence with TVLRO to this n/g, please? I

do with a good laugh.

(BTW, I have one of those licenses, too.)

Excellent.

The correspondence with TVL amounts to "I have a valid licence, yours
etc."

I don;t have to prove I have a licence, they have to prove I don't, and
that I am using TV in contravention of the licence they say I don't have.
