Do217 radio(?) equipment B.zB.-Verkehr, 1943

Can anyone shed any light on the B.zB.-Verkehr equipment in use in German bombers in 1943. I suspect that it was used by the BF - but that's as far as my 'knowledge' goes!

QGH is a procedure normally for descent through cloud?

Thanks Chris and Rasmussen. Rassmussen, does 'Bord - to - Bord' mean within an aircraft? OR between two or more aircraft?
