| X6135 RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Les.{Ivan A. Leslie} c. to .By. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Les.4/MA.23.12.32. IMPROVED INSTRUMENT PATCH LIGHTING. Sales are very anxious that the 25HP. Patch should be used on 40/50 chassis, but they require the lighting to be improved. A temporary scheme for testing a modification to the patch lighting was issued under By/RD.2/W.22.11.32. We understand that most of the parts are now complete. However in order to get the Smith patch on the next series of 40/50 chassis, we require the result of the experimental By/RD.2/W. 22.11.32., within the next few days.
