HC Deb 19 October 1949 vol 468 cc41-2W
82. Mr. Erroll

asked the Postmaster-General what reports he has received of the public interest in the television display at the Post Office stand at the recent exhibition at Olympia.

Mr. Wilfred Paling

The Post Office display demonstrated Post Office engineering services connected with sound and television broadcasting; the importance, for good reception, of efficient aerials; and the simple measures that can be taken by the public for the suppression, at source, of interference. The exhibits attracted visitors in considerable numbers. The demonstrations, mainly educative in character, were well received and, in my view, achieved a good result.
