I use small loops, for receive...  They work very well, and if you can
hear the source you can more than likely DF it.

See:

If you are lazy, you can buy an Alex Loop, very portable, well thought
out, and in general a very nice tunable loop, that will cover 40 through
10 meters.

Build one and save a pile, or buy one and spend too much, either way you
will be happy with a loop for DFing.

Alex Loops are here:

There are others...
