hello Larry, what type is a G3 Mercedes?

[Larrister]

Mercedes Benz (G 3 a) possibly a nachrichten truck. Can you tell me the difference between a nachrichten vehicle and a funk vehicle. Did they do the same job?

I posted a Horch funkwagen photo here: http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...symbols&page=3

Here is a MB G 3 a signals vehicle with radio mast.

Hi Kerry, hi Larry,

on Your pic, Kerry, is an Opel "Blitz" 1,5 tonner type 2,5 - 32. It is not a Funkwagen, but a Vermessungswagen, a vehicle of a survey unit.

On Your first pic, Larry, the antenna is not visible. It is a Funkmastkraftwagen, a vehicle with a very high antenna pole. What we see is the grating on the roof for standing on the roof. You can see it better on Your second pic.

Regards

Bert

Hi Bert,

Thanks for the information. Would this Krupp L 3 H 163 also be called a Funkmastkraftwagen?

Cheers,
Larry
