To Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. [Redacted] [Redacted] 6037 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux}3/KW.15.3.35. 21-G-IV. We have fitted the ventilated dynamo to 21-G-IV and tried it for noise. There is a heavy note when the dynamo is charging which is electrical as demonstrated to you. The ventilating fan appears to be quiet as was demonstrated by cutting out the excitation of the machine. [Signature] Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/G.W.Hancock. | ||
