ROAD TEST ON CAR RADIOS AWA CLARION TEN Much written space is devoted to the performance of cors. To assist the public we conducted tests on car radios. Two N.Z. mode brands, X and Y, one Japanese partially assemb>ed in N2. (Clonon) and one imported from Japan (Ten). The test route was Christchurch to Christchurch via the Hoost J >O5S -J*’® results confirmed bench tests. One New Zealand made radio was impossible by Springfield and the remaining New Zealand made one received Christchurch only. The “Clarion" and “Ten appeared greatly superior giving local and Dunedin and West Coast Stations with ease while travelling. It was obvious that the “Ten" and “Clarion” were vastly superior. En route Hokitika to Haast it was possible to listen to 3YC and 4YC, while Brand X was good for the West Coast Stahon only. South of Fox o comprehensive fest was carried out. Brand X was capable of use on twoi West Coast Stations, 20-odd stations were heard on both the “Ten” and “Clarion brands. At Knights Point IZB Auckland was dearly received along with many other stations. / A later test was made on a trip to the Egglington Valley, with the ’Ten and “Clarion'.’.good reception. The New Zealand mode (Brand X), was discarded because it was not just good .enough. These radios in most cases cost less than the more familiar New Zealand made radios.
