FFSS and FFRR

Posted by garrod on January 23, 2011 at 04:08:14:
During the second world war Decca worked for the government and invented a new Radar system.FFRR was a byproduct of this research.
When Decca started to produce stereo recordings they used FFSS designation on the labels and covers,and FFRR for the mono issues.
This all makes common sense,and yet.....I see on your (very clear)labelography for the US market Decca used FFRR for stereo recordings!
Sometimes I think Record Companies of the period were confusing on purpose.
