HEENEY-TUNNEY FIGHT

FAILURE IN AUSTRALIA. WRITER in the Melbourne "Listener In" writes: "The hopes of picking up the descri iption of the Tunney-Heeney fight that was broadcast from the ringside by the General Electric Company on the shortware band and rebroadcasting it were doomed to failure. Short-wave enthusiasts, professional and amateur, were on the qui vive, but I have not heard of any good consecutive reception, and certainly none that was worth rebroadcasting." The foregoing illustrates the definite success achieved by 2YA and other New Zealand stations. & y }
