Of Daventry

DURING recent months, the causes of certain types of interference `on frequencies ured by Daventry have aroused some speculation among fisteners and in the Press, This article, specially prepared for the use of the Ouerasa Press by the Engineering' Division of the BBC, deals with this subject, and describes some of the many types of interference that may affect short-wave services.

THE DOC 13 VITALLY INTERESTED in the question of securing clear channels for the Empire Service, and maintains a constant watch at Its receiving station at Tatsfeld, Kent, on all the Doventry frequencies. As a result of this work, it can be said that no cases of deliberate Interference to. Doventry have been observed,

That interference to one or other of the frequencies used by Daventry. does occur from time to time is admitted, but, in view of the vast number of stations, both broadcasting and commercial, operating off wavelengths; below 50 metres, a certain amount of trouble is almost inevitable.
