This is the only TV in the household. No sky NTL etc subscription either.



If you have any equipment capable of recieving TV then you need a license.


"If you have any equipment..." is by far too meaningless. You can have a TV
that is not tuned and not connected to an antenna. Then it is not capable of
receiving TV.

But to be on the safe side, you have to make it plain it can't be used as a
TV receiver.
