Dear Sirs,

We are anxious to arrive at standardized fittings for all the condensers used as filters in connection with car radio sets fitted to R.R. and Bentley chassis.

The condenser we propose specifiying is one of 2 micro farad capacity 2" long by .700" diameter with additional 3 mm "Sistoflex" sleeving over the lead in wire, made by T.C.C.

Will you please say if you would be agreeable to the use of this condenser for noise suppression on our dynamos, screen wiper motors, ignition L.T. feed and petrol pumps, as we are anxious to specify the correct fittings and position of such condensers on all our new chassis.

A reply by return would be welcomed.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED.
