A RADIO COMPONENT FROM A Do217
 

Hi Guys

this panel was fitted o a Do217K of KG100 that crashed in the Pyrenées mountains on 14 June 1944.

Can anyone help me identify what it was ?

Thanks

GC

Hello Gilles
This seems to be a part of the Peil G6 radiocompass. This specific box (KAgK6) is located between the antennas and the electronics, and was intended to optimize the signal transmission. You can find a manual of the Peil G6 here : https://www.cdvandt.org/D-Luft-T-406...er-PeilG-6.pdf (the description of the box is included).

Have a nice confined day !
