[t is not often realised just how much work is necessary before a new product is placed upon the market, Different appliances and accessories in the radio world come and go, some stay, and are successfully marketed, others just die. When a line has been thoroughly marketed, few consider just who is respon sible for its success. y * & A comprehensive range of radio products has been introduced by Mr. HE. R. Boucher, radio department of Spedding, Ltd., who created their radio business. In 1922 he introduced Burgess batteries, followed by Mullard valves and Brown loudspeakers, and in quick succession the Rola speaker, Polar Twin receivers, Federal battery receivers, Webster pickups and power amplifiers, Magnavox dynamic speakers and the Majestic electrie radio receiver. Of the last-mentioned over 8000 were sold during last year. To keep posted with the latest developments, Mr. Boucher spent seven months abroad during 1928, studying radio conditions. , Mr. Richard Godby, who arrived by the T.S8.S. Maheno on Friday from Australia, is to join the radio staff of Harrington, Ltd., Wellington. For some years prior to coming to New Zealand Mr. Godby was connected with the British-Australian Radio Co., of Melbourne. » Mr. G. C. Moses, who has been repre- 4 senting Messrs. Abel, Smeeton in Whangarei and the northern districts for some time has now been transferred back to their head office, and Mr. A. Temple has taken back his territory.
