Listeners Treated To Fine B Station Fare

To the Editor. Sir,-Following a B station session the other evening, I had the pleasure of « few minutes conversation with one of our best-known and most talented radio artists. He had just finished as enjoyable and varied a programme. as one could hope to hear, comprising classical, ‘sacred and modern music, Asked why he didn’t broadcast from A stations, he stated‘ that he had forwarded an application to 2YA_ before Christmas, but it had met with blank refusal, no reason being given. Our programme organisers are wanting flesh and blood talent, yet a musician like this, immensely popular with listeners all over the North Island, is being allowed to leave our shores without any at tempt being made to detain him. A pity. surely. The artist referred to is Mr. Morgan, of Auckland, formerly Uncle Reg of 1YA. A word of thanks to the "Radio Record" for the helpful information it contains for listeners, particularly shortwave enthusiasts.-I am, ete.,
