I~.rvey of the Harvey Radio and T.V, Repair Shop spoke to Cowzcil, saying that, with our transmitting system poUrered by a 6 volt source, it would necessitate converting our system to a 12 volt source if the Chevrolet Police car was purchased and this would also necessitate a new generator. New equipment would cost aroand ti~601®00 plus installation of from :~30 to ;p35®00. With a possible trade-ii1 all.airance of 4p50.00 for our present system this would seem unwise.
