| X.8793. Extract from M/5. 5.10.26. Letter from Peto & Radford. I have been testing the Lucas magneto very thoroughly and in my opinion its performance from every point of view is far and away better than any magneto I have ever had and it is really quiet. The only noise I get being an occasional one from the fabric disccoupling, which Mr.Lucas says does occur sometimes owing to the bolts squeaking in the fabric. | ||
