Dear Mr. Nichols, After a lot of thought and experiment in our Laboratory I think I have arrived at a very simple form of single wire petrol gauge entirely compensated for voltage. I would like to visit you next Thursday morning to discuss the same with Mr. Russell and yourself. The scheme is quite simple and I have had a model working in our Laboratory. Will you let me know if next Thursday morning is convenient? Yours sincerely, | ||
