FuMO 4

[SES]

In 1986 F. Trenkle published “Die deutchen Funkmessverfahren bis 1945” an excellent book and a real classic, a must for any Ln-nerd. So I was quick to pick it up.
On page 131 there is a drawing of a presumed FuMO 4, but Trenkle also writes: ”Die Antenne des FuMO 4, das anscheinend nur als Munster gebaut wurde, kann nur noch bei der Anlage FuMO 34 (a shipborne vession) zum Einsatz“.
So it was assumed that the FuMO 4 was never deployed operationally ashore. This assumption was correctly based on the fact, that this type of radar was not mentioned in any Kriegsmarine KTB or in the list of equipment handed over to the allies (e.g. BAMA RM 7/1590) where it is incorrectly listed as FuMO 3.
Here is the rest of the story.

Hei SES

meget spennende lesing, kikker litt etter bøkene til Trenkle, vet blant annet at det er nevnt noe om Tromøy i en av dem.
