WHANGAREI TEAM
TATION 1XN‘s well known announcer Ron Nicol, and Joe Brown, of the technical staff, seen here about to leave on an outside job, both came to the NZBS from overseas-Ron from Australia, Joe from Samoa. Ron himself was a technician first when he took up radio work in Queensland in 1937, but already had experience in front of the microphone before he came to New Zealand-"because | married a New Zealand girl"-nearly four years ago. He was ABC news reporter in South-West Queensland, and has been a film commentator and worked on the production side of radio. During the war he was an R.A.A-F. wireless operator. Before going to IXN he was at 2ZB and 3ZB. Joe Brown was in radio in Samoa, and will return to radio work there when his five-year term with the NZBS ends next year. He was at Wellington and Dunedin before going north.
