A LOUDSPEAKER TEST
A SUGGESTION has been make that 2YA, Wellington, should send out a series of sounds ranging from the very lowest bass notes to the shrillest notes in the top register, so that listeners could judge the efficiency of their loudspeakers. An Pnglish radio journal states: _ "During future broadcasts «from York Minster, listeners should listen. very attentively to the ringing of Big Peter. This bell has an extraordinarily deep tone, and is very sweet and clear. It was recently recast, and the ringer says it is the lowest-toned bell in the world now. "FTowever that may be, it is certainly so low that many loudspeakers will trip up on it. So if, next time Big Peter is broadcast, he sounds to you like the beating of a tin can, do not blame the B.B.C. or Big Peter himself -examine that loudspeaker!"
