In a letter forwarded to the PostmasterZeneral covering the above
resolution, it was stated that many speakers commented on the distortion and fading experienced In relation to 2YA at Nelson on account of that city being situated in the worst fading area of the Wellington station. It was also stated that the opinion had often been expressed that static was worse in Nelson than in any other district in New Zealand, inasmuch as it was sometimes experienced during daylight as well as night. The claim that Nelson, on account of its special disabilities, should be included in any system of relay stations was strongly supported.
