Seetakt
HI Leif,
Oh my god, you'll have to wait for my next book. But of course a good, relevant and thoughtful question. I'll try to give a short version. The FuMO Stellungen were arranged in clusters, which all reported to an Ortungs Zentrale (OZ). This in turn reported to the Seekommandant, who decided, which tactical action was required based on the plot. All OZs also reported to the MOK/Area Admiral so he had an operational view of the situation. In Denmark there was an OZ at Esbjerg, Frederikshavn and Copenhagen and Admiral Dänemark in Århus. Each of the OZs were responsible for producing "The Recognized Surface Picture" in their respective area of responsibility. I'll try to go through the sources again and see what other OZs I can find.

Du hast keine ausreichende Berechtigung, um die Dateianhänge dieses Beitrags anzusehen.
In welcher Region ? Wenn Du nach dem Zusammenhang mit Leuchttürmen fragst und Stellungen fragst ?Leif hat geschrieben:Hallo.
Beim Eintragen einiger Stellungen ist mir aufgefallen, daß fast alle FuMO 3 an Standorten von Leuchttürmen stehen. Ob dort auch Batterien waren, kann ich nicht sagen.
Nun mal wieder eine naive Frage: Sind alle Informationen an das Marinehauptquartier gemeldet worden oder wie lief es hier ab? Wer hat von der Seelage direkt profitiert?
Viele Grüße,

Hallo Leif,
Interesting remark about the lighthouses. I think that a FuMO Seetakt location corresponds with a lighthouse neighbourhood in at least 3 cases in Poland.
Today afternoon I was researching lighthouses for this reason, and now I've read your post So there must be something right about it!
cheers,
Michal

Leuchttürme
Ich kam nur darauf, da sowohl Cap Frehen als auch Pt. St. Mathieu jeweils Leuchtturm und Radarstation neben einander liegen haben. Bei Auderville ist der Abstand etwas größer, in der Festung Gironde Süd bei Le Verdon passt es hingegen wieder.

Hi,
Where there is a lighthouse there is access to the beach and there is a reasonable road.
The logic of placement of Seetakts follows that of lighthouse to some extend. E.g. the curvature of the earth has an impact on the distance between the units, lighthouses guide the way into narrow rivers, the Seetakt watch the shipping. So I suggest that it is mainly the geography/hydrography that has driven the location of lighthouses, and the locations of Seetakts was partly driven by the same requirements and constraints.

I found two more
Cap d'Antifer - Lighthouse + FUMO
Le Havre Cap de la Heve - Lighthous + big FUMO Bunker
