Hello

Thanks to Dieter and Jörg

The lightning sign with the point = Sender
The lightning sign with the T end = Empfanger

Hi!

Sorry, but for "Wotan II" you need two transmitters!

My guess is ,that the flashes were the Sender (transmitter, 5 of them).
The T-symbols were the according "Fridolin"-Leitsrahlbake (guide beam beacon, 3 of them).

If you ask yourself, why were there five transmitters but just three guide beams, the answer
is quite simple. Two guide beam beacons were "offset" of the post, at Beaumont-Hague (one
concret-"bunker" is still there).

could be wrong ??

Hi Jos!

No, you are right!
Sorry, my mistake. I have not watched the map proper enough. I have not noticed the two different tactical signs.

I recognized three beam-beacons ("Fridolin"), four DF ("Heinrich"), two receivers (Empfänger),
two transmitters (Sender) and one unidentified transmitter or receiver (I can't recognize the
sign properly).

Do you agree?

Best wishes
Rolf
