Wayne, Yes, see the wiki:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adcock_antenna .
Lt. Frank Adcock invented a receiving direction finding array during WW I.  It turned out in the 1920s also to be ideal for sending out signals orthogonally, in four directions. This is an interesting case of radio-reciprocity.
