X6040 Roy.{Sir Henry Royce} from EFC. EFC1/AD20.9.30. Will you please obtain a small tin of cellulose lacquer such as the Macintosh Cable Co. have used on the cellulose lacquered L.T. cable recently obtained from them experimentally. We are anxious to be able to apply this to the ends where the insulation is cut to prevent fraying instead of using tape. EFC. | ||
