The radio station was found in the Hamburg Forest 30 kilometers west of Cologne. She was in a sealed metal box in a cache equipped in the woods and was completely ready for work, provided that the charging batteries were replaced. The keyboard has marks in English with Latin letters on the keyboard, i.e. it was intended for the work of a person who speaks German or English.
No other details of the find were reported.
The R-394KM radio station was produced since 1987, was intended to operate in the frequency range from 1,3 to 13,5 megahertz and had a transmitter range of about 1200 kilometers.
