So, if I have a TV with a license and I let my license lapse and I also have a CRT type computer monitor and I'm no longer using the TV because my license lapses and the TV detector van comes by and detects my computer monitor, will they come busting in the door to arrest me even though the TV is off and it's the computer monitor they are detecting?
