Commander of the Chinese Air Force, signed several important eortracts
in the spring of 1953.
2. China was to receive from Budapest, heavy industrial Is chinnery, war materials,
medicaments, medical eau.ipsent and instruments In the course of the year.
The mayor part of the shipments consist of modern and large cppsc.ity radio
stations produced in Hungary which were to be manufactured by the Belolannisz
factory in Budapest. Experiments with these new type emission stations have
been carried out for several months at the XI plant of the factory. Such a
modern station, however, can only be set up with the cooperation of several
major plants.
3. The following Hungarian state enterprises are taking part in the shipments to
China: Beloianniss, Mdvag Bridge Construction Department, Transzvill, Radio
Technical Enterprise, the Porcelain Factory at 1Kobdnya, Bridge Construction
Enterprise, the Electrical Fitting Enterprise and several smaller enterprises.
4. The stations are of 135 kilowatts. Since it would have been difficult to
obtain condensers from abroad, a new gas condenser has been developed from
Hungarian material. The water used for the cooling of the tubes is beings used
for the hosting of the buildings. Great pains are taken to achieve >xerfeet
dustproofing. Six handred liters of water per minute are needed for the cooling
of the radio tubes. The aerial is 150 meters high, a product of the Wvag Bridge
Building Departmentf and opntains approximately 50 metric tons of iron.
