MUSIC IN SERIALS
Sir,-I agree wholeheartedly with the complaint of F.T.V., in connection with the unnecessarily loud music featured at intervals in so many radio plays. Surely these strident outbursts could be avoided in the recordings or at any rate moderated at the studios during transmission over the air. As an example of pleasing moderation throughout I would cite the presentation of the serial "Owen Foster and The Devil," from 4YA, which is one of the few items in the category not necessitating a constant attendance at the volume confrol. While on the subject, I wonder if other listeners to 4YA have been troubled by the periodic distortion of programmes, particularly in the evening sessions, with oceasional periods of blasting suggestive of a station completely out of control. Then all the ZB Stations heard in Timaru suffer from interference emanating from Australian stations. I wonder if steps could be taken by the NBS overcome this. %:
