The W/T post at Sharjah will not affect the need for
increased power at Bahrein in the event of Henjam closing
down. The station at Sharjah is purely an R.A.F. post
manned only when aircraft are in flight.
6. My Lords suggest that the following arrangements
would best meet the situation:-
(i) An increase in the power of Bahrein so as to
enable that station to be received on medium
frequency (500 kc/s) by any ship or shore W/T
station within the
Persian Gulf
The historical term used to describe the body of water between the Arabian Peninsula and Iran.
during day
light and dark hours.
(ii) The installation of a suitable H/F transmitter
at Bahrein to enable intercommunication to be
carried out with Karachi for at least 12 hours
out of 24.
7. My Lords desire, however, to point out that the
maintenance of a British operated W/T station at Henjam is
most desirable from both commercial and naval points of
view.
