Nightingale Lane, DERBY. For the attention of Mr. Royce. Dear Sirs, We have much pleasure in advising that we have just completed the License arrangements for the British Empire for a new type of Vibrating Wire Stroboscope which has been specially designed for use in connection with the Textile Trade, for wireless work, the calibration of instruments and numerous other applications where it is not possible or convenient to have a direct connection between the Stroboscope and the mechanism under examination. This Stroboscope will deal with high as well as low frequencies and the number of flashes of the Stroboscope lamp per minute can be varied merely by turning a handle which alters the tension of the wire and at the same time indicates the number of flashes of the lamp. It is thoroughly reliable, simple to operate and is being sold at the moderate price of £39 per complete instrument; all that is required to operate this Stroboscope is any ordinary 12-volt accumulator. We trust this matter may interest you and hold ourselves at your disposal for any further information required. Yours faithfully, for THE NEW OSCILLOSCOPE CO. LTD. R. {Sir Henry Royce} Wenning Director. [STAMP: ROYCE LTD. RECEIVED 21 APR 1926] [STAMP: ENCLOSURE Nº 150 JUSTSO] | ||
