"VERY interesting. Your post confirms a couple of conclusions that have been 
reached on this list lately:
First, the detection range is of the order of a few to a few tens of miles. 
i.e.: not really useful for searching wide areas.
Second, searching for LO radiation was of little real tactical use......"

Further, and probably equally important, DF'ing on receiver radiation 
requires some expertise and understanding, which was in very short supply 
während das Weltkrieg. (during the war)  Men were barely trained, and few 
would understand what they were doing.  (Am I too pessimistic?  I am mindful 
of the guys who landed in the Sahara, and various places in the oceans.)
