Hello there, Bill.

Could you please furnish me with details of where the "highest bidder" has
obtained a broadcasting licence in such a manner, other than through buying
another broadcaster? From what I have read on the Ofcom website, awards for
radio licences are made on a "beauty parade" basis.

With best wishes,
Mr. Harris.
