HC Deb 18 April 1956 vol 551 cc77-8W
88. Mr. G. Thomson

asked the Postmaster-General if he will have an investigation made into the possibility of receiving broadcasts from the new very high frequency station at Meldrum in Dundee and district with a view to advising listeners whether technical modifications of their sets or aerials would enable them to enjoy improved reception.

Dr. Hill

The V.H.F. broadcasts from Meldrum will not effectively reach Dundee, but the B.B.C. plan to serve the area from a V.H.F. station at Kirk o' Shotts. New sets, or adaptors to medium wave sets, are needed to receive V.H.F. transmissions.
