A fixed direction finder mounted on a 40 m mast and 5 mobile direction finders of different polices and of the Bundesnetzagentur (Federal Network Agency) were launched.

G8 summit
An FM broadcast pirate transmitter was operated in an opponents’ camp. The emissions ceased firstly after a phone call. In the evening, however, they continued to transmit again. For safety reasons the police decided not to confiscate the transmitter.
The opponents used PMR to communicate. On June 2nd there was a major demonstration of
G8 opponents in the old harbour of Rostock. The city center of Rostock was cordoned off. 1000 people were injured.

G8 summit
Most interference of the some 70 interference problems could be solved by the users, e.g. police.
The radio monitoring staff could temporarily not access their hotel because it was blocked by opponents and media people.
