I hear lots of amateurs describing interference and other problems on
HF, but no one seems to be triangulating the offending stations. I am
guessing that the real secret was in their communications with the
'spotters' to triangulate the positions.

worked quite well, but they require precision in construction, as well as
the site.
For VHF/UHF, there are all sorts of things available
N0MKJ and I used to hunt with the "fox-copter", featured in the 3/94 73
magazine.

Here's some references in 73 magazine:

Thank you,

I bookmarked the DF antenna and am reading the other articles.
