The sample receiver which they have sent is quite unsuitable for fitting on the instrument board of an owner driver's car without sacrificing the cubby hole. They do not appear to have any instrument with remote control, like PHILCO. We are therefore unable to agree to purchase one of these sets to try out in the immediate future, so far as Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}'s or my cars are concerned, and I thought I would let you know this. Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} Luel | ||
