[UK-CONTEST] Ofcom Survey published

[G3SVL]

It is important to remember that the referenced report addresses ONLY the 
responses of the 1500 or so who returned the unsolicited questionnaires 
sent out by MORI to 4500 randomly selected licensees. It does not include 
ANY of the comments sent to OFCOM as part of their general solicitation to 
all licensees. That will probably not be analysed for another couple of 
months as I gather they were overwhelmed.

The methodology used by MORI is academically good and will, I'm sure, be 
held up as a representative sample by OFCOM  - the responses the rest of us 
sent in will be seen as 'the views of the active group' and it will be 
interesting to see how OFCOM builds these in to the overall result.  This 
is all assuming that the decision is not already made (cynical - moi?)
