Hello Everyone,

During WWII, the most common method of locating enemy radio transmissions
was through the use of radio direction finding whereby two or more
monitoring stations would obtain bearings on enemy transmitters then
triangulate the results to obtain a fix. There were at least two other
techniques which could provide data or intelligence  about the
characteristics of the transmitter making the transmission and the Morse
code sending style  of the operator. These techniques were known as Radio
Finger Printing (RFP) and TINA  and were used by the Allies. When used
jointly, TINA and RFP were known as 'Z' intelligence or 'Z' service.

I have just posted some research on this topic at:
