[Stamped] RECEIVED 12 JAN 1937 TO BY/RD. [Stamped] BY Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Wst.21/JH.2.12.36. Phantom III Ignition System. We notice that 28/36 cable is being used on the Phantom III chassis to feed the ignition system. In view of the fact that the coils on this chassis take a heavier current we should like 40/30 cable to be substituted in order to feed a maximum voltage to the coils. Lr{Mr Ellor}/Wst.
