Why is the digital multiplex wasting power by transmitting the Comedy News Channel 'RT'?
This is surely a waste of UK Spectrum ?
Are OFCOM not monitoring the content of this British Broadcaster ?

John Smith: RT pay for their channel to be broadcast on a commercial basis, in accordance with their licence issued by Ofcom. If you think the channel is in breach of its licence, you can make a complaint to Ofcom. There is no power being wasted as the exact same power output would be used regardless of whether RT was being broadcast or null data was being broadcast in its place.
