| To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}5/MJ.24.10.30. We are handing to you a 5 3/7 mm. radiator. Will you please fit the new square tube dented matrix to this radiator. The 5 3/7 matrix removed should be perfectly good but it is doubtful whether they will accept it on production from what CEP. says. We are anxious to test the round tubes with eight dents in them as soon as we can, to see whether these should go into production rather than the four dented tube. We are handing you a radiator with a 6/7 mm. matrix to which you can fit these improved round tubes. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
