Yes, as stated the license was for owning a receiver. You say the offence was?
I love it when technology out paces authority. My ISP recently blocked certain websites on the behest of big business interests, within days an alternative mirror site had sprung up and it was business as usual.
The gagging orders paid for by the rich and famous (like Ryan Giggs) recently are also made pointless by the freedom of information found on the internet, and long may it continue.
Going back to the OP I'd also like to see on bike radar deflectors or jammers that - much like the tuning fork trick the Police allegedly use for their own ends, we could use for ours. Historically each new technology has been immediately harnessed by the authorities for their own ends, it's nice that the internet provides a level playing field of sorts.
