[Milsurplus] Why Germany lost the war

[Hubert Miller]

No referral to any other manual. AND i have seen that this is the standard for German mil radios of that time.

I admit, i have only seen maybe 12-15 of their manuals.

I hope their radar manuals were better!

The ONLY German manuals i have seen that approach the level of our say, SCR-274 manual, are the manuals for 

the FuG10 aircraft radio and its direction finder EZ6. These are ‘large-format’ while the rest, the average manual,

is the small size, like our SCR-194 or SCR-203 manuals.

I have only seen one Japanese manual, which seemed to be for the 94-6 walkie talkie, and i considered the booklet

technically next to useless. There is one manual for a Japanese receiver, Type 92 something, done by the U.S. 

military, and i’m sure it’s actually better than the actual Japanese manual for their own receiver. 

 

I DO find voltage tables very useful.

Any indication as to the technical level of the personnel for which the manual was written, i.e. operators, installers, field level maintenance, etc?  Also, any indication of supplemental lists 

or publications.   Read someplace that their artillery pieces were complicated and manufactured to a level of precision that precluded most field maintenance. Had to be shipped back to t

he factory to be repaired.  Their radios the same maybe?

I was looking thru a German manual for the Fusprech.a  transceiver for armored cars.

Altho there’s a circuit description down to the component level, in vain did i look for any mention of 

the actual IF frequency.  Nor is there any resistance or voltage measurement table, something that

even a manual for the lowliest of Hallicrafters Echophone receivers would include. Were these data

GEHEIM! ( secret ) ??
