OUR REF CR{Mr Cra???ster / Mr Chichester}/KHK/J TEL. EXT. 200 YOUR REF Messrs. Rolls Royce Ltd., DERBY. 27th August, 1934. For the attention of Mr. West. Dear Sirs, Referring to our promise to submit Car Radio Receivers for test purposes, and to call upon you in order to give you the benefit of our experience in ignition noise suppression. We very much regret the delay which has occurred in submitting these Receivers, but as previously pointed out, we are awaiting the inclusion of an improvement which will considerably reduce ignition noise difficulties. This has taken rather longer than we anticipated, but is now nearing completion, and we hope to be able to communicate with you further on this subject in ten to fourteen days time. Trusting that you have not been in any way inconvenienced and assuring you of our best attention at all times. Yours faithfully, p.p. LISSEN LIMITED. K.H. Kerr. | ||
