Re: "Enigma B207 - Hitler's Cipher Machine ?" article

Martin...
 
Your frequent and informative posts are always welcome...thank you.
 
B207: little more is known than that which is included in Frode's blog and in the Eye Spy piece cited in your email. Given the secrecy that surrounded Enigma within wartime Germany and the loss of many pertinent records it is extremely unlikely that too much more will be revealed about these 'B' machines but be assured if something does come up we will talk/write about it.
 
B207's wheel wirings have been determined but one can only speculate about those of B222 and B223.
 
I must stress that B207 is not yet on display at NCM while some minor restoration work is underway.
 
Regards,
 
David H.
