Nelson Radio Club

An Enthusiastic Body HE annual meeting of the Radio Club was held in the institute rooms on Tuesday, the 15th. ‘There was a large and enthusiastic attendance of members and intending members. After the secretary had presented the report and balance-sheet the patron of the club (Mr. W. Lock), who was in the chair, congratulated members on the fine work accomplished during the year, and stressed the importance of listeners joining the club. The report stated that much had been done during the year in construction work, and several fine lectures delivered. Also after a general meeting of listeners a deputation waited on the local radio inspector to see whether anything could be done to eliminate power-line interference, ete. The club has to thank the inspector for his prompt action in the matter, and also Mr. Fleming, the city electrical engineer, for his help in testing the different power lines. The committee were fortunate in securing the attendance of Mr. Clive Drummond, 2YA, at a hastily summoned meeting. Mr. Drummond gave some useful and interesting information on broadcasting, and as this was the first opportunity there has been of meeting anyone from the Broadcasting Company here his talk was very much appreciated. The Radio Club wishes te thank Mr. Drummond very heartily for giving up so much of his short time here to them. The club also desire to thank Messrs, Wilkins and Field, Mr. W. Richards, and Mr. C. T. Webley for demonstrations which were greatly appreciated by members.
