| To Wd {Mr Wood / Mr Whitehead} /Ms. from EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} X.4430 EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 2/T16.2.22. X.4430 - SILK DIELECTRIC FOR GOSHAWK IGNITION CONDENSERS OBTAINED FROM THE IOCO CO+ We understand you have already ascertained that the above silk dielectric can be obtained from The Ioco Company if necessary without the lumps of varnish and also to a more uniform width. We would like to know if it would be possible to obtain this somewhat thinner, say, .0015" in place of .002". If that is the case it would seem certainly worth while obtaining another quantity of this. Would you therefore kindly enquire to this effect. EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} | ||
