Abstract
THE broadcasting of the wedding service of H.R.H. The Duke of Kent and Princess Marina from Westminster Abbey on November 29 was described by the Times wireless correspondent as an unparalleled technical feat of the B.B.C. engineers. All who listened on this occasion will agree completely with this opinion; while those whom circumstances compelled to wait for the re-broadcast of the ceremony in the evening programme will have been equally impressed by the very high quality of the recording and reproducing technique. A brief description of the technical arrangements adopted for this occasion was given in World Radio of November 23, from which it is quite clear that the wireless listener was in a much better position, so far as hearing was concerned, than were probably most of those who attended the wedding service in the Abbey itself.
