RADIO DEPARTMENT 10th December, 1935. Rolls-Royce Limited, DERBY. For the attention of Mr. H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} West. Dear Sirs, Further to our recent correspondence concerning car radio in Rolls-Royce and Bentley vehicles, we understand that our Service Department has now forwarded to you a complete power line, including the screened cable with the adaptor and fuse to screw on to the set, the noise filter, and the unscreened portion of the power cable including a 10 amp. fuse. We understand further that they have sent you a diagram of the connections. We shall be very glad to know whether you have yet had an opportunity of considering the new fusing arrangements. At the same time, we feel that in fairness to you we ought to say that we have on several occasions connected up to the junction box on Rolls-Royce cars, without experiencing any engine interference, but this, of course, may not mean that in all cases we should get the same results. Yours faithfully, PHILIPS LAMPS LIMITED. CAR RADIO DEPARTMENT.
