| c.c. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Wst. 613? BY {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /RD.6/B.1.7.37. 25/30 HP. & Phantom III Chassis. To enable us to make economies on the Instrument Patch we propose to use 3½ volt bulbs, which arrangement Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Wst., has already tested and approved, and we now issue RR.Sch.1102 showing the mounting of the fixed resistance, utilising standard Lucas units. The scheme also enables us to use a more economical lamp assembly for the 8 lamps in the patch. Details of this will be issued almost immediately and we should be pleased if Pm/Wst., could arrange for an early test. Blueprints of the scheme attached herewith. BY {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /RD | ||
