ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS
Donald M, Christie (Christchurch ).-Station programme entries were amended; not the "‘showcase’’ panel; sorry. The programme announced in the panel, "Journey. to Malaya," will be presented by all the ZB stations at 9.35 p.m. on Sunday, October 10. Salamander (Bay of Islands): If you were to tell us what church and what minister on what date, it might be possible to have useful advice conveyed to him by an appropriate channel. Music-Lover (Wellington): You have "listened in vain’’ because the recordings don’t exist. A has not been recorded commercially yet, it seems; B has been broadcast whenever he could be engaged, and knows that he will be engaged again as soon as_he is ready; C has declined repeated suggestions to broadcast. "Records be made available immediately": a phrase to be addressed to magicians. Swede Turnip 3/- (Wellington): Too close to party politics, Ted Austin. (Christchurch): Sorry;_ photographs not available. Roy Urlic (Auckland): You did not ask about the YDs, no; but you must allow. us to bring the YDs into the answer to the question you did ask, if the answer requires them. The YC evening programme ‘t is not assumed till 7.0 p.m. Till then, YC or YD provides an alternative to YA’s’ service programme. YC and YD @o this in Auckland; in Wellington YC does it alone; so also, YC it alone in Christchurch and Dunedin. Population statistics appear to be irrelevant. R.G.H. (Christchurch): The YC stations broadcast programmes alternative to those of the YA and ZB stations in the same regions; they are not and never were intended to give listeners a choice ~of four YC programmes. Such listeners as have a choice of two (or more) are listeners most fortunately placed topographically; but programmes are rightly planned, not for this minority, but for the majority who have regularly good reception of only one of the YCs. Since the link programmes are introduced selectively, their standard is high and because the link enables them to be heard by the widest sible audience, the reference to a "raw deal" is mis-directed. . A. Harvie (Christchurch): Yes, it has been considered; but such a development is for several reasons impracticable at present.
