RADIO RECEPTION.
INTERFERENCE DIFFICULTY. STATEMENT BY MINISTER. "Everyone cannot be put oil" the map in the interests of radio," said the Postmaster-General, Mr. A. Hamilton, when replying to a deputation representing Auckland listeners which waited 011 him this morning.
In connection with interference, Mr. A. Greville Walker asked with which authorities communication should be made in regard to interference and other technical matters. Such matters, he understood, did not come within the scope of the Broadcasting Board.
The Minister said that a committee had been set up representing the board, the Post and Telegraph Department and the Public Works, with powers to frame regulations to control interference. It might be asked whether radio was more important than an X-ray set, for instance. A good deal of discretion and wisdom had to be exercised in efforts to eliminate interference. Some forms of interference could be cut out very easily, but others were extremely difficult.
After mentioning that the committee was attempting to lay down regulations that would not be too harsh, Mr. Hamilton advised the deputation to communicate with the Post and Telegraph Department concerning the matter raised.
