I can't recall the source where I read this (possibly "The Wizard War"
<http://www.vectorsite.net/ttwiz.html>), but as I understand it, the
Allies concocted the whole DF on the LO myth as a disinformation
campaign to convince the German's that the British Navy was sinking
their U-boats by DF'ing the LO in their radio receiver, instead of by
locating them by radar. They went so far in this disinformation
campaign as to contract with Scott to build "LO shielded" morale
receivers for the troop ships.
