Battle of the beams - Lorenz were fairly minor. Much larger antennas with considerably smaller beam angles were set up, and broadcast power was increased considerably. The first two of these new Knickebein (crooked leg) transmitters were set up in northern Germany near the border with Denmark, and another to the south near France. The two beams could be pointed to cross over the target, and the bombers would fly into the beam of one and ride it until they started hearing the tones from the other (in another radio). When the steady "on course" sound was heard from both radios, they dropped their bombs. Using Knickebein required nothing more than the installation of a second Lorenz receiver. Knickebein was used in the early stages of the German night-bombing offensive, and proved to be fairly effective..

Cesis - - Riekstu hill -with a fortified wooden castle of Vends. The 18 m high mound with its partly preserved fortification system can still be seen in the Castle Park.

Rally Navigation techniques, tips and tricks - route will work only if you use a clearly marked white. Grid References A Grid Reference is the standard way of plotting a point on a map. These may be given to varying degrees of accuracy, depending on the requirements of the event. A standard grid reference has 6 figures, but occasionally 8 or 10 figure references will be given. Sometimes, whole, half or quarter grid squares are specified, and for these only a four figure reference is required. For the OS maps, the UK national grid is based on gridlines drawn at 1km intervals. Each grid line has a unique number, but for clarity the map will only show the last two digits of the grid number. Since every 100km these repeat, a two letter code is assigned to each.
Zoroaster - the Trojan war, Xanthus 6000 years before Xerxes, Eudoxus and Aristotle 6000 years before the death of Plato. Agathias remarks (ii. 24), with perfect truth, that it is no longer possible to determine with any certainty when he lived and legislated. "The Persians," he adds, "say that Zoroaster lived under Hystaspes, but do not make it clear whether by this name they mean the father of Darius I or another Hystaspes. But, whatever may have been his date, he was their teacher and instructor in the Magian religion, modified their former religious customs, and introduced a variegated and composite belief." He is nowhere mentioned in the cuneiform inscriptions of the Achaemenid dynasty, although Darius and his successors were without doubt devoted adherents of Zoroastrianism. The Avesta is, indeed, our principal source.
