Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.1/MA.27.7.34.

We suggest that we fit up a number of our Show Chassis with Radio Sets and if it is agreed I should like to have a talk with you about the sets we should propose to fit.

We have had additional visits from the Ecko & Motorola people regarding sets and have been particularly impressed with the statements of the former. The set which they propose to put on the Market at the Radio Show at Olympia appears to be an extremely nice job and at any rate we ought to have one of these sets on our Chassis.
