Quote from: Thebox on 02/03/2018 07:13:16Why not make the licence a honest licence. By this I mean have the licence as a sort of radiation tax, the bigger the radiation source the more expensive the tax licence? Surely the poorer people of the nation who cant afford huge televisions would then benefit from this and not mind paying a lesser fee that equates to their status in society. Richer people with big televisions should pay more than a poor person with a small television. A fee could be set at x amount per inch, around about the £2.50-£3.00 an inch being a honest price. Once again, you seem unable to tell a lightbulb from a TV set.

Again you have gone back to your trollish ways and are being silly.
Quote from: Thebox on 02/03/2018 11:14:29Again you have gone back to your trollish ways and are being silly.It's not trolling to point out that the radiation (deliberately) emitted by TV sets is light, and that they resemble light bulbs in this way.
I already said earlier the thread they are charging us a license fee to detect light,
Quote from: Thebox on 02/03/2018 12:20:14I already said earlier the thread they are charging us a license fee to detect light,You said this before.And we pointed out that it isn't true before.So why say it again?
Carrier signal = photons
Quote from: Thebox on 03/03/2018 10:49:21Carrier signal = photonsNo. It really doesnt. Something else you are wrong about then.

It certainly isn't light.Is this another of those cases where you're using a word, but don't know what it means?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier_wave

No you wouldn't , the photons are not within your visual frequency range.

No you wouldn't , the photons are not within your visual frequency range. So you can't see them . You can detect them by having better eyes, i. e a device.

But according to your nonsensical idea, we see a picture on a tv screen because the transmission is of photons. You are therefore implying that the transmission is in the visible range. Do you also think that cable or You tube videos are transmitted over a wired network using photons?

Do you also think that cable or You tube videos are transmitted over a wired network using photons? A television emits wave-lengths of electromagnetic radiation in the range of 400-700nm i.e visible light. And of course a network uses photons sent up a wire, the same as fibre optics work with sound.
