RDF bearings

By DoK

Many years ago I was fortunate to spend a couple of weeks using Marconi Direction Finding equipment.

The installation used four antennae set on the cardinal points of the compass [N, S, E & W] and bearings taken using a goniometer.

Having used this system and remembering the null depth has encouraged me to try several different types of Loop Aerials to obtain the best result. Monitors must judge the results for themselves, from the following bearings.

The bearings stated below are as taken with no adjustment or correction being made. Therefore, I suggest these bearings should be taken as ± 3º

Station Mean Bearing
M03/E11 087º
M10/S10d/S17c 088º
M12 089º
 
UNID Arabic  
15040kHz 0957z 22/02 185º
ended 1014z  
 
Reference Bearings
Prague 098º
Greece 127º
Morocco 183º
Iran 102º

All above bearings taken from a position of 51.58N, 0.10E [GPS measurement].
