OFCOM ..."no you can't" again at LF

This afternoon I got another email from OFCOM. Although my requests have been passed upwards for other more empowered people to consider, it is effectively a refusal of permission to carry out experimental research for short periods even at 10uW EIRP on clear spot frequencies in the LF spectrum between 40 and 80kHz without getting a £50 Non Operational (T&D) Licence, which I am not prepared to do.
