Torch-battery Tape-recorder
\V HEN Arnold Wall, Talks Officer at 3YA, set off for England in a Hastings bomber recently, he took with him two lightweight battery-operated tape-recorders on which he will collect his material for broadcasts. These machines — illustrated here -are the latest technical aid for programme building which the NZBS has invested in, and are designed for collecting material in areas where electric power is not available, or where the commentator cannot take technicians with him. The machine is about the size of a portable typewriter, 1514 inches by 71% by 8, and weighs 1634 pounds, including its four torch-size batteries. Each tape has a playing time of 15 minutes, and a commentator normally takes two machines with him in case of technical troubles, and about 20 tapes. The NZBS is equipping each centre with two machines. :
