FCC 15, home or office use.

A somewhat more careful reading shows that both rules apply only to intentional emitters.

And yes, i have current hardcopy and links.

In certain senses part 15 applies to everybody. for RC modelers with amatuer licenses part 97 applies, for general unlicensed (power limited and for specific frequencies only) part 95 applies.

For emissions not covered under other parts for intentional radiators part

15 applies.

The concept is to seperate the BBC from the state, and prevent state meddling. The BBC are proud of this division and struggle to keep it.

It is worth the collection fee problems.

Without it the UK TV would be as boring as TV in Moscow, which just reads out goverment press releases for news

Reckon the licence fee will go up any day now - someone nicked the BBC's £8M master tape of the new Robin Hood series for which there's no backup tape, they're asking £1M ransom!!!

The BBC is denying the ransom demand and says there are backup tapes. There had better be - it's high treason not to have backups! You have to go to work for ITV for 15 years without parole.

In the US/Canada somewhat similar networks operate on donations.

Not true. In the US we have PBS and many independent stations which
operate on a subscription/donation basis. 

In Austin, our 24/7 PBS station is KLRU, and an excellent example of
a subscription based independent is our KMFA, a 24/7 classical music
station which offers streaming audio over the Internet at:

Try it, you might like it... even if it is American.

Good ones.

AIUI you all have to buy a license to operate a TV.  How does the
government know whether you\'re operating one if you haven\'t paid for
the licence and you\'re running it illegally?

They send out detector vehicles that pick up local oscillator radiation. But they hardly need to do this now; they data-mine for addresses that don't appear on their list of licence-buyers. If you change the name of your house and it doesn't have a number, you may well get a 'polite request' to buy a licence or declare that you don't have a TV.

Damn! That's almost as scuzzy as our red light cameras ;-)

Note: I have NEVER received a red-light-camera ticket. I only get speeding tickets, usually for at least 85+ ;-)

I read a story a few years ago about this guy who got caught
speeding by a camera/detector and he got a copy of the photograph of
his license plate, along with the ticket, in the mail.  He then sent
back a picture of a check written for the amount of the fine.  Later
on he got back a picture of a jail cell... 

I think it happened in the UK; sounds like that deliciously dry kind
of humor. :-)

I recall counting 13 post mounted speeding cameras on the A90 from Peterhead to Fraserburgh. I had the notion to put a radar signal generator in a backpack calibrated to 80 mph and cycle along it. But I don't think they were much in use.

You don't get out of ANY ticket when you're driving a $63K car ;-)

However I have found that being polite and non-combative does get you privilege. The ticket I got around the first of the year was written up as 79 instead of the actual 88 I was doing, thus avoiding a "criminal" speed complaint, where I would have been arrested instead of simply ticketed.

My policy is to never argue or deny your speed. When they ask how fast I was going I tell them. How can you deny what the COP read on his radar gun? In this last case I did fudge a little and said "70's ??", since I knew he was at a significant angle away from head-on ;-)
