10.

My wife Karin in conversation with our friend Nissim, whom was so kind to serve as a door guide about until noon; as to let visitors, in some way or another, register themselves. Our aim hereby is not to know someone's name in the first place - but counting the number of visitors and getting an idea where they came from.

On the right-hand side the atomic controlled Rb-Frequency standard which is constituting the frequency reference of the Nachfee system.

 

11.

In the centre Hans Goulooze, of course (on the left-hand side: According Anton Kroes Gijs Dirkzwager PA 0 DIG)

 

12.

In the centre Peter Eijlander

Paul Huneker the editor of the NVHR pariodical - myself and again Henk van Zwam with his camera rig

 

14.

Paul Huneker is looking at our dismantled Fug 102 altitude radar receiver module; designed by FFO - but once manufactured by the Dutch Philips

 

15.

The concept of the receiver (180 MHz) is of an exceptional neat and quite revolutionary construction

 

16.

Both friends of us: on the left-hand side Phil Judkins (Wakefield Yorkshire) and on the right Helmut Klausing of Bavaria

 

17.

A highlight certainly was the Enigma type G, particularly maintained for operational Abwehr communication

This type is very rare, and was only brought-in today.

From left to right: Marc, Meindert, Robert, unknown, and Peter

 

18.

The Enigma type G was exceptional, as it did not provide a so called "Steckerbrett", but rotors only

I suppose that the box in front is a power supply.

 

19.

No comments either
