Hello Andrea,

The angle could be found with a directional antenna or inerferometry, but about
the distance?

About the only reliable way to locate hidden transmitters is by field strength. The problem in built-up areas is reflections.

At one time Doppler DF systems were popular, but anybody who has used one will tell you they are usually more trouble than they are worth.

A simple beam or dipole is useful, but only when out in the open country

By simply gridding the area, and drawing a field strength map, you will soon cut the location down to a small area. Then with a field strength meter you can walk right up to it.

When doing professional DF work, I would use a scanner with an external S-meter and an effective attenuator in the antenna lead.

Regards........... Zim
