Here is one of the forecasters whose voices are heard direct from the Weather Office. The voices of several members of the staff were tested by the NBS for their suitability for broadcasting before weather forecasts were resumed, and the job of reading the forecast into the microphone might fall to one of these during a duty spell. Some of the equipment used for keeping in touch with other weather offices is seen in the photograph.
