Gents:
I received the book "Instruments of Darkness" by Alfred Price for
Christmas and finished reading it in a couple of days. Fascinating read
about the cat-and-mouse electronic war engaged in by the Luftwaffe, the
Brits, Yanks and Japanese during WW II. Especially intriguing was the fact
that the book describes in some detail technologies that were, at the time,
TOP SECRET.
I'm not sure where my family located it, but I had suggested they try
Barnes & Noble or Amazon.com. It's well worth the effort to locate it.

P.S. The SX-28 was mentioned as a receiver that the US used to locate, I
think, the Luftwaffe's air-to-ground comms channels so they could be messed
with by our jammers onboard our B-17's.
