Probably you could start by finding information about this gear but there
would have to be someone on the team who can understand German:

Many such sites have links to British and American gear but often also in
German. Another option are senior centers. A few of the EEs from those
days are still alive but there won't be much time left.

Thanks! I will check this out. German is no problem whatsoever!

Ah, Norway. Then you might even find some WW-II veterans from the German
side. I've met a few when I was younger. Some had been stationed there
and liked it so much that they later moved to Scandinavia or bought a
summer house there. One friend of mine would have known a lot about
these Radars but unfortunately he passed away. He went on vacation to
Norway pretty much every year.

In contrast to today the guys at the sites were intimately familiar with
the circuitry because they had to repair this stuff on the component level.
