Found in the Seeko Pas de Calais

"Leitstand Prinz Heinrich : hölzerner, besonders kräftig versteifter Holzleitstand , Augenhöhe 24 m.
Leitstandplatform für ? M. Peilapparat mit Zählwerk in offener Ausstellung . Unter dem Turm, bzw.
neben Turmfuss erdversenkter betonierter Leitstand L.B.K. nach Musterentwurf O.K.M. "

Looks the command post of Prinz Heinrich had also a wooden tower just like B. Oldenburg

I agree then, no Möselgeraet. But I'm still curious to know what this "Peilapparat" was.

The gun emplacements of Prinz Heinrich in Stp. 121 , typical is that this is the only Channel batterie
that has the Bettung, Munitionsbunker and Machinebunker seperate as in 1940 . B. Oldenburg and
Friederich August had incorperate these bunkers in a new Schartenstand . Drawing = Jörg Powerleit .
