Switzerland pulls the plug on broadcast TV

@Thunder5Ranch That's a sweet deal, one I wish they would offer me! Well done, sir!

 

I was lucky enough that this is my second tower lease. The first being up North of Springfield on 1/4 acre a defunct RR line Quit Deeded over to me. Not nearly as sweet of a deal but what I learned from that deal paid off in the negotiations for the second one. LOL that first lease is up in another 12 years and will be open to renegotiation Assuming I am still sucking air then

 

Here in the UK, we have to have a licence to view TV and it's not cheap! We have commercial channels satellite etc but they receive nothing from the licence fee, only the BBC. I found out a while ago, whilst doing some work in a BBC studio that ALL of its broadcasts had a delay so as to 'vet' the transmission for any 'irregularities' which meant that they were recorded. You don't have to pay a TV licence to watch recorded programming so I stopped paying the licence and quoted the above for my reasons. That was four years ago and it seems others have found out about the scam BBC were running, making people pay for recorded programming, and as a result it seems that the BBC are having financial problems. GREAT, what a bunch of left wing yes men they are, government lackies, all the fake news you can handle! long live the revolution hehe.

 

Singular noun. BBC was and is, never were and are.
Anyhoo..... we still have digital OTA TV here, thoigh I haven't watched it in years. Netflix, Hulu and Dish work for me. The Dish Network is expensive though.
