Can I listen to BBC radio without a TV Licence? Yes, you can listen to BBC radio without a TV Licence.
While a TV licence is required to watch BBC content on BBC iPlayer, you dont need a TV licence to listen to or download radio programmes from BBC Sounds. For more details, visit the TV Licensing website.
The simple answer is yes. If you plan to use UHF or VHF radios designed for business, then you must have a business radio license with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The purpose of an FCC license is to prevent other businesses around you from using the same frequencies.
Does a business need a license to play the radio? Very small businesses playing music through just a few small speakers dont need a license to play the radio. But larger organizations, or locations with challenging acoustics that need multiple speakers, cant play the radio without a license.
No, you do not need a TV Licence to listen to the radio (including on BBC Sounds). If you play music on your business premises for customers or staff through radio, TV, computer or CD/DVD, for example please check if you need music licences from .pplprs.co.uk/your-tv-licence-at-work.

Apply for a License Successful candidates can apply for their amateur radio license through the Ofcom portal. If you are new to the website, you must complete a registration form. Ofcom describes the amateur radio license as for life, but you will need to renew it every five years.
It is illegal to transmit without a licence unless you are trying to contact the emergency services, which is the only transmission exemption. Therefore, most ham users apply for a licence because they want to listen and transmit.
You do not need a licence to play royalty-free music. Check if your business or organisation needs a licence on the PPL PRS website. The way you get a licence to play live or recorded music has changed.
