grab your elusive 3rd world broadcast licence, you'd pick
listeners without problem.

Is this really a viable option?
Was it ever a possibility or a red herring thrown out by Ronan to keep
the
workers "on board" and not lose faith?

Yes it is a viable option Ronan could have had a licence from a number
of states if he had been prepared to pay for one and so could anyone
else.

Unfortunatly Ronan wasn't offering hard cash but on air promotion for
the country issuing the licence. They wern't interested in that they
wanted the cash. Despite what other may have you believe the Uk
authorities would not be able to board any radio ship with such a
licence.
