The central mast was wood-latticed with a weight of 10.2 tons, guyed in 5 levels.
It operated in the medium-wave band and used a triangle plane aerial, which was hung up on three 28 metre tall masts.
In 1939, the entire antenna system including the central mast was dismantled.
Starting in 1942, the buildings were used for a research centre for investigating the production of fuel from peat.
From 1954 to 1963, the facilities served the forest-economy faculty of the Humboldt University of Berlin.
