    On the plateau on the Hohenkreßberg near Marktlustenau enthroned the rotary beacon "VOR DKB", so with Dinkelsbühler identifier. It still serves as a landmark for both civilian and military aviation.
    The ground station is a combination of a civil and a military radio beacon.
    The site offers in good weather a magnificent view of the Hesselberg and the northern edge of the Swabian Alb.

    A rotating beacon (VOF) is a radio beacon used for aviation navigation. It transmits a special VHF radio signal from which a receiver in the aircraft can determine the direction to the beacon.
