| K/KC. From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. 76153. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.1/MA.29.3.35. Chassis No.B.45.AE. - H.R.H. The Duke of Kent. Replying to your K/KC/DPB.28.3.35., Messrs.Philco spoke to me on the telephone and I suggested that they should approach you at K.{Mr Kilner} with a view to changing over the regulator in order to ascertain whether faulty adjustment of the regulator was causing the interference complained of. We are glad therefore that you acceded to Field's request and are particularly interested to learn that no improvement was obtained as this was what we expected. We have already written to Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} regarding the wireless on this car, suggesting that we recommend to H.R.H. changing to a British made set, i.e. the Ekco.
