| EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} X7791 Mx {John H Maddocks - Chief Proving Officer} 10/T30.4.28. WATFORD MAGNETOS TYPES E06 AND R01 X.7791 X.8796 X.5790 In reply to your EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 3/T28.4.28 we have not up to the present any means of determining whether there is any depreciation of magnetism, as suggested by you, but we do feel that the efficiency of magnetos deteriorates, as we frequently find that after a certain amount of running, the magnetos give poor results, and will not then attain the standard of the initial test.
