102nd
Signal Battalion
Bocksberg Radio Site
Looking for more information from military/civilian
personnel assigned to or associated with the U.S. Army
in Germany from 1945 to 1989. If you have any
stories or thoughts on the subject, please email me (webmaster).
The Radio Engineering Laboratory (REL) Division of Dynamics Corp. has been awarded an order for troposcatter radio equipment for a two-span system that will be installed in Germany. The sites for the quadruple diversity system that will operate in the 4400 to 5000 megahertz range, will be Bocksberg and Breitsol in West Germany and West Berlin.
The contract calls for two terminals (Breitsol and Berlin) and one repeater station (Bocksberg) which will employ REL 2600 equipment.
