Station

TO Be Placed In Suva As Empire Link

A MALGAMATED Wireless (Austral asia) Ltd., which recently opened a radiophone service between Rabaul and Sydney, has completed plans and is manufacturing equipment for an im portant world-wide broadcasting service at Suva, Fiji.

The chairman of A.W.A., Sir Ernest Fisk, stated early in December that this new station should be in operation within the next few months, and although it was not expected to improve the com pany’s revenues for some time, it was hoped that a reasonable return would come later. That station should eventu ally become an important factor in British world-wide broadcasting.
