3. The Zeesen transmitter will be reconstructed in the autumn
It is to be located
in the woods near the place where the former transmitter was dismantled in
1945/46. Whereas the former transmitter stood directly beside the Berlin-Cottbus
highway route 179, the new transmitter can be reached only by taking a side-road
which leaves the highway in the direction of Schenkendorf-Kruamer See.
4. At Nauen near Berlin, a complex of buildings and grounds is being currently pre-
pared for a training center for the KVP-Communications (KVP-Nachriohten. These
installations formerly housed the Nauen transmitter, which had as its called
t%' station Geltow. The following construction has already been put into service
at this location:
a. Two shortwave towers, about 120 meters high, with omnidirectional antennae.
The towers are of wood, and are set up on the old c blocks of the former
transmitter. The antennae are clamped to the tower ndicularly. For
the moment, the transmitters are being used as short jammers also. These
towers serve both a 5-k tter and four 40-kilowatt transmitters.

It is to be located 25X1
in the woods near the place where the former transmitter was dismantled in

installations formerly housed the'Nauen transmitter, which had as its "called
station , C?eltow. The following construction has already been put into service
at this location:
a. Two shortwave towers, abo t 120 meters high, with omnidirectional antennae.
The towers are of wood, a are set up on the old cement blocks of the former
