Australian Radio Technical Services and Patents Co. Ltd. (ARTS&P) This company was formed to take over all the patent rights claimed in relation to sets and parts made by A.W.A, Standard Telephones, Ltd., and Phillips. Ltd. [1] By 1927 the manufacture of radio receivers in Australia and New Zealand was subject to over 2000 patents, registered in the country of origin and also in Australia and New Zealand. With so many patent holders a solution had to be sought to manage the conflicts arising and an Australian Royal Commission was instigated. An article titled “Wireless. The Patent Situation. Present Complications” by N.M. Goddard in The Sydney Morning Herald of January 31, 1934, explains the Patent situation in early 1934.[2] ARTS&P License No.1 was issued in December 1933 and published in the Radio Trade Annual 1934, page 75. In April 1934 representatives of radio patent owners assembled in Sydney to discuss the possibility of forming a joint company to collect royalties in uniform method from manufactures of radio sets. This resulted in The Radio Royalty Pool Plan.[3] On April 4 1934 Hazeltine joined the ARTS&P [4] and by April 24 the group consisted of 18 companies.[5].

Geschichte: |
To show compliance to the License each licensed radio manufactured was fitted with a small sticker attached to the back of the chassis. Each label had a serial number and a letter to indicate the year of manufacture. The royalties paid were based on the number of cathode–anode electron streams in the set, and this is represented by a number in the top left of the label. The label wording for each country either refers to the Commonwealth of Australia or the Dominion of New Zealand. The 1934 label was plastic riveted to the chassis in Australia and New Zealand was white paper glued to the chassis. In later years, New Zealand radios used the Australian label with another label added stating “Patent licence extended for use in the Dominion of New Zealand”. Australian labels

The company published Technical Bulletins with circuits and helpful design hints for its licensees and included reviews of contemporary wireless magazines. In November 1935 The company was granted an experimental Television transmitter license.[6] By the 1950’s, most of the original radio patents necessitating the ARTS&P had expired. The advent of transistors, FM and television bought a new wave of patents but by the 1960’s the number of manufactures had reduced and production was by large manufacturers. These manufactures obtained their [1] The Advertiser (SA) Feb 7, 1934, Page 19.
