Is it possible to have a radio that when the signal comes in, it can tell
you which dirrection it's from?????????????????????????????????

SR!


Yes. BUT. The DF principles I have described do not work effectively above
MW. Ferrite antennas are less effective. The thin wire you described it
called Litz wire. Also remember that point I made about skywave signals
coming in from different directions to groundwave. Very nasty errors occur
at dusk and dawn due to diurnal shift.

The alternative is to have a log periodic or perhaps a StepIR tunable,
turnable array.

Brad.
