  • Abstract
    The effect of short and longer term failure of valves and components on the overall reliability of television and radio receivers is considered. Some reasons for failures are reviewed and suggestions for improvement are made. Extracts of statistical information on reliability of relatively large batches of television receivers are presented. The need for information on the predicted reliability of components of new design is emphasized.
