c. D/BP.
c. Roy{Sir Henry Royce}/JT.

With regard to various calorstats which have been returned to us for examination, the following are the results of our tests:-

Calorstat ex chassis GRO.28 - defective - fails to operate.
" " " GWN.23 - Defective - starts to open 10° low.
" " " GRP.38 - Defective - starts to open 4°C late.
" " " GHO.25 - correct - opens correctly.

These units have been returned by Roy{Sir Henry Royce}/JT. for examination and rectification, with the exception of unit ex chassis GHO.25 which is not defective. In the other three cases, the repairs should definitely be F.O.C.
