DF capabilities

Does anyone know of any WWII aircraft receiver or receiver system that had 
airborne Direction Finding (DF) capabilities in the   3.0 to 18 Mcs ranges. 
Using either automatic or manual antenna operation.

I am currently working on a fairly  precise homebrew copy of the British 
Type 3 DF antenna  and using it with the R1155A receiver.  The R1155 manuals 
states that the receiver can be used on the higher HF frequencies mentioned 
above as well as the normal navigation frequencies  1600 Kcs and below.
