HOWLING RADIO SETS
Sir,—ls it not time that something was done ro howling sets. To-night (Wednesday), as Wellington is closed down, I have tried to get with my fivevalve set both Auckland and Christchurch. I did get them, also what sounded like 20 or 30 howlers. Now, Sir, 1 for one do not pay my license fee to hear howlers. When one has paid £5O for a set and is unable to get anything outside Wellington because of howlers I think that it is time something was done. Is it worth 30s. per year under present conditions? I do not think so. The Australian stations are the same, and to obtain any respectable results at all one has to sit up to nearly midnight. I would like to know if the P. and T. Department cannot do anything in the matter, because I for one will get rid of my set (and there must be many others similarly situated) if there is no alteration in tilings in the near future.—l am, ANTI-HOWLER. February 22.
