Re: Radio beacon or "Funkfeuer", middle France
Hello SES,
Thank you for this explanation and the link.
The map into the book is the reproduction of an original "navigationskarte" and your co-ordinates locate the radio beacon “Saturn” in Germany! Two beacons with the same name?
I would like to understand for what is used this station "Brillenschlange" in aerial navigation because I am not a specialist of this equipment! Location is : 465403N-023146E
Witout speaking of the base for the “Würburg” and the supposed electric station, to my opinion, one of the bases in concrete is used as support to a metallic mast. At the edge of a square base in concrete, to one of the angles,there are four square holes which could have been used to fix a mast. Note that there where two important airfields in the vicinity, used by bombers units and a flying school FFS(B)15.
Best regards,
Frederic
