I don't think it has anything to do with the license fee. You pay the fee if
you have a receiver in your home, whether it's plugged in and working or
not. I think it's more to do with the way the transmitting strength the BBC
puts out. The same way we can't get a lot of stations from abroard the
further they are away from the UK.
============
Your point about signal strength applies only to the direct reception of TV
programmes over the airwaves with a TV receiver.
We're talking about watching TV programmes on the BBC website via the
internet. Distance is not a factor here.
Kind regards,
