RADIOS FOR WAR
New Australian Industry HE production of radio équipment for wart purposes is one of the most important developments the war has brought about in the radio industry of Australia. Every new ship in the Australian Navy carties locally manufactured wireless, and the Army and Air Force are correspondingly equipped. The Army is also making extensive use of the new low-powered combination transmitters receiver instruments produced for the exchange of messages over distances limited to a few miles. And it is the same in the Air Force, Not only is every ’plane provided with the means of communicating with its base and with other aircraft in flight, but all the ait stations and training schools are linked up by wireless installations which have a range covering the whole Continent of Australia and beyond. el Owing to war conditions in Great Britain and U.S.A., it became desirable that aircraft instruments, hitherto imported, should be produced in Australia, The task was handed to A.W.A., and that organisation is not only making gyroscopes, altimeters, air speed indicators, rate of climb indicators, flying and bears ing compasses, vacuum gauges, and mani«+ fold pressure gauges for Australia, but has reached a stage at which it is providing equipment for use in countries beyond the Commonwealth. That, however, is a story that cannot now be told.
