BACKGROUND NOISES
Sir,-I would like to endorse the complaints that have appeared in your columns about the unnecessarily loud and blatant music in the interludes of many of our serials. To the lay mind there does not seem to be any reason why such outbursts cannot be avoided or controlled. The technicians may be able to give reasons, but it is disturbing to have to be constantly rushing back and forth to one’s set, trying to control it. Station 1ZB has fallen away very badly of late in its transmissions. Distortion with frequent background noises are too common. Maybe it is time, too, to check up on the condition of some of the records used in the serials: there is a great unevenness of quality in many of them.
