Dick Smith Radio Direction Finder
 

Gary,
I'm in the process of finishing a new display for my "Roanoke Doppler".
Do a search on that name and you'll get many hits. For just the antenna,
the Homing In Web site has info on both main types in common use. I'm not
sure what the Dick Smith does, but perhaps Homing-In talks about it.

Homing In is the place to start:

It has antenna system (typically 1/4 wave whips for the Ham units)

Down a ways on the main page under Home Built:

This specificlly addresses the Dick Smith unit:

You can always email K0OV.

they never came with antennas that i know of, you had to build them
yourself. the plans for the asu including circuit board and parts list
are in the manual, they are simple things that you should be able to
find
at any radio parts store... assuming you can find one of those today.
