Now you're asking. About £120 I think. Does the black and white license
still exist? That used to be about £35.

It's not all bad, you only need one licence, not one for every TV ;-)

Exactly... Freedom of speech and of the press, Besides if I had to pay a
tax on each of the 6 TVs in my house I think I would lead the revolt on
Washington myself.  Instead of tea in the harbor it'd be Zenith's on the
lawn.

As I understand it, in england ALL receivers must be licensed.   Unlike
the
U.S. where there are no restrictions on the Reception of broadcasts, and
all taxes and fees are levied at only broadcasters, in englad you must
have a license to own a receiver.

Here in the U.S. if a signal is being broadcast it is legal and
acceptable to receive it and there are no restrictions on receiving a
signal.  There may be restrictions on the Decryption of the signal as
covered by the DMCA, but the actual reception is not controlled.

The catch in the US being that ANYTHING that generates an RF signal
counts as a transmitter and thus must be licensed by the FCC.  SO almost
any electronics has to have an FCC approval before it can be sold.

It ties into the US policy of freedom of the press and speech.

Thanks, all, for your input.   I knew I could count on this list for
information and entertainment!

So, to sum up:

1.    I should expect 40% of my salary to be taken by the government,
maybe
more, as I am a foreign national.  (Thanks for the salary calculator,
Jeremy.  That's handy.)
2.    Buy a car over there, preferably a beater, until I get used to
being
on the wright side of the road.  The car allowance will probably be
taxed as income.
3.    Stay away or close to the Essex women.  Gotta watch out for those
stilletto's.
4.    License for the TV.  I had heard about that my last trip over.
5.    Find a place near a tube stop.
6.    No hunting with dogs, cigarettes or guns.  (whew!)
7.    Be sure to do the social things with the team, pubs, etc.
8.    Don't be wary of the fags.
9.    oh, and I'll be watched on camera's all the time.  Even those
lonely
nights.....

I'm quite excited about this new adventure.  I certainly hope my permit
comes through.  God bless the Queen!

Spencer
