Another good portable RDF is the Pilot Pal series, with its long rotateable
ferrite rod antenna and S-meter. Same NDB/MW/Marine Band coverage. The model
I have, Pilot II, also has a DF level potentiometer. Scott. Sent via the
Samsung Galaxy S8+, an AT&T 5G Evolution capable smartphone

All,Another useful and inexpensive tracking tool is a vintage marine
directionfinder. My particular model (Newmar NAV 101, but sold under many a
privatelabel) is battery powered and has three bands: Beacon, BCB, and Marine
(1.6to 4MHz). It has an RF gain control, sig strength meter, a BFO of
sorts,and of course a big lovely azimuth calibrated rod antenna that is
capableof nice nulls. I found mine on the local CraigsList but there is
alwayseBay. Many different makes and models were made.Dennis
