OF PAGES REQUIREMENT REFERENCES 7 May 1953 THE SOURCE EVALUATIONS IN THIS REPORT ARE DEFINITIVE. THE APPRAISAL OF CONTENT IS TENTATIVE. 3. 1. The planned extension ttz VEB Funkwerk Koepenick has begun, The work Will cost about 1,900,000 DM East. Work has also began along Strarsse 230 On the construction of a wall 2.5 meters high, which will probably surround the plant area when completed,. 2. The adnistrative organization of the plant is also being changed. The present artmental names will be replaced by new Kostenstellen (Accounting Department numbers Part of the Technical Design Section Teehnisehe Pro jektierung) (TP) will be moved in the next few weeks. Eventually, this entire branch of the Koepenick plant will be moved from tte present site and placed under another administration, VEB Funkaniagena This new VEB is to be under the direction of Hubert Coenenx. a returnee from the USSR; Hens Drechsler,, and''ahnke (fnu) s are. to be among those transferred to the new VEB Radar a. On 12 January 19531 two Russians from the SKK,, in civilian clothing,, visited the marks. They were particularly interested in the radar,. UHF transmitters,: and navigation equipment. They did not ask any questions, but immediately after their visit, an order was issued that a fundamental change was to be made in the radar set It was understood in the department that it had been decided to make the aerial moveable in a vertical plane, No new written development proposals, describing the change were available by 20 January 1953. In the meanwhile, the aerial already developed had been mounted on a 30 m tower on the grounds of the plant, and was being calibrated on nearby landmarks.
