Fritze Knieriemen Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 (edited) A couple of month back, I was happy to get my hands on this pedal generator setup such as been used with 5WS (5 Watts Transmitter). certain little details been missing but due to heavy investigations and the help of some friends, I was able to complete the set.

Desert Rat Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 That machine is absolutely Superb, Well Done in finding it, and what a great item for a collection! Where on earth where would you find one today?.....Very Rare! Brilliant and thanks for showing us on MCN. Best to you....Desert Rat/ Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fritze Knieriemen Posted February 1, 2019 Author Share Posted February 1, 2019 There was a big lot coming in at KP Emig and he sent a sneak preview around by email... on first pic, somewhere in the corner, folded, half hidden.... I was the first one reacting I assume - drove there next day and bought it. In the meantime I have another bike generator type - actually generator is the same, but the TM Satz (bike) is different (will come up soon with pics). What I’m looking for is the TM15 (15Watts Generator).... btw - in case you want to browse Emig’s Website, here you go: https://www.kpemig.de/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desert Rat Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 (edited) Hello To You All, I visited this radar station and dishes with the truck in Normandy some years ago, it is about 5 - 10 kms inland not far from the Merville Battery, inland in a secret location (sort of) I have no idea what the actual truck is for unless to intercept British & American fighters and bomber? Thought it may interest you? Best to you all....Desert Rat/ Ian Edited February 1, 2019 by Desert Rat correction to text 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are just fillers and have little to do with the original equipment during the war. The only original piece of German radar equipment at Douvre la Delivrande is the "Würzburg Riese" antenna. As a typical "Himmelbett Stellung" to guide night fighters onto their targets, the site would originally have two "Würzburg Riese" radars and a "Freya" radar. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funksammler Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Very nice Tretgestell, but I think it was mainly used with the 15 W.S.E.a/b pedal generator. There are two other types of "Bicycle frames" supplied by Telefunken for the generator of the 5 W.S., one portable, the other vehicle based. The vehicle base frame is the one most commonly encountered or seen on period photographs. The only reference to the TG(Fu)a I have been able to find in period documentation to date is in the description of the "Kleiner Funktrupp f", which used the 15 W.S.a/b. regards, Funksammler 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fritze Knieriemen Posted February 2, 2019 Author Share Posted February 2, 2019 Not unlikely Funksammler, not at all as fixing the TM5A1 to the TG(Fu)a was not that obvious... still searching for the TM15 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funksammler Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Yes, the TM15 does not come along very often. You will also need and E.W.f/f1 The Tretgenerator was connected to the radio via this box: regards, Funksammler 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fritze Knieriemen Posted February 4, 2019 Author Share Posted February 4, 2019 @Funksammler... finally I found a magazine which documents the TG(Fu)a along with the TM5A1 source of pictures: https://www.radiomuseum.org/forumdata/users/15752/RADIOBOTE/Hefte/RB_2007_11_rev06_1_V.pdf At least an evidence of the combination 😉 Doesn’t solve my demand on the TM15 😄 ... anyway - have another project pending... b1....... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
