Country: | a little something for you guys to check out. this is a special map done up for useage by the Bordfünker und Bordmechanik from the spring of 1945. Showing the beacons and routes to other beacons and towns inclusive of some of the airfields. Gütersloh was the base for II./NJG 4 and my friend and RK winner Herbert Rauh flying the Ju 88G-6, scored 3 kills on the raid to Chemnitz on 5/6 March 1945........... | |

Country: | not sure if anyone here knows of the last several months tewsting on a positive note of Bernhardine, the tele-type printer installed in Ju 88G-6's and it was to be a standard fit in the future Me 262B-2a
A small number of FuS AN 724/725 "Bernhard" UKW-Richtstrahl-Drehfunkfeuer were already in operation. The system consisted of a very large antenna (please see below) which rotated twice a minute. The receiver in the aircraft (FuG 120 "Bernhardine") displayed the bearing to the station on a narrow paper strip. The system was now modified to transmit a very abbreviated Reportage Lage consisting of the height of the Bomber Stream, the position, heading and strength. The system worked on 30 -33,3 Mhz, was high powered and directional and hence very difficult to jam. By switching between 2 stations the radio operator could now obtain a fix every 1 minute and he did not have to work 2 radios to find a jamming free frequency.
The outfit was never jammed by the RAF. thanks to Michael of SES | |
