    the license is for equipment capable of receiving a tv signal. some things or excluded, like laptops etc.

    It's the same as a gun license. Even if you never fire the thing, or have any ammunition, you still need a license for a fire arm.

    right the tv license guy comes to your door asks to see your tv so you take your gun with your gun license and shoot the telly.

    The tv does not work now so I do not need a license for it now.
