Like you, all I have is that during the night of 1/2 March, NSG 20 sent 40 Fw 190s against concentrations in the Goch - Udem area, two breaking off with technical problems. Explosions and several fires observed. After dropping their bombs they shot up road traffic without observing the results. 23 sorties were flown by NSG 20 against targets west of Cologne.

It looks like aircraft were out practically from dusk to dawn. AFAIK at this period all these operations would have been from Twente. I don't recall that Germerheim was ever an operational base. NSG 20 went from Bonn-Hangelar to Limburg on or about 11 January. A detachment of 8 Fw 190s stayed at Bonn until the 23rd. The transfer of the entire Gruppe to Twente was in progress on the 27th and completed by the 30 January but for a Restkommando of 13 aircraft.
