Wullenweber: German for wool weaver. Germans had several in WW2, none existed elsewhere. Sites were stripped and
burned and the big iron goniometers buried during the closing days of the war. Took quite a bit of effort by ONR and
OSS to retrieve enough material to reconstruct the concept. And a lot of work at U of Ill. and ITT/FTR to make one
work. Beamformers, not TOA. That came a lot later.

The initial question was set in the WW2 time period, I believe.
