Attention: Mr. West, Experimental Dept. YOUR REF. OUR REF. LMM/KHJ. SUBJECT 1st May .... 1936 Dear Sirs, Further to our letter of the 22nd. instant we are writing to advise you that since this letter we have had a further case of wheel static interfering with car radio reception and the cure has been exactly the same as in the first instance, that is, to thoroughly clean all brake mechanism inside the drum and machine a small portion of the drum thus allowing it to be quite clear of the brake shoes. This operation was carried out at your Cricklewood Works and we believe that Mr. Bellringer has already reported this to you. We now look forward to receiving your comments on the suggestions made. Yours faithfully, L. M.{Mr Moon / Mr Moore} Mynard. Service Manager. | ||
