Neptun – FuG 216, -217 & -218, German high-VHF-band (125 to 187 MHz) night fighter AI radar, introduced mid/late 1944, generally used the Hirschgeweih antenna setup of Lichtenstein VHF-band radar sets with shorter dipole elements, as a replacement for the compromised Lichtenstein SN-2 90 MHz AI equipment.
For this reason, Doppler DF systems normally mount their antennas on a small disk that is spun at a high speed using an electric motor. Performing the same calculation using an antenna mounted to a disk with a diameter of 50 centimetres (20 in) diameter spinning at 1000 Hz results in: S = .25 × 1000 × 101.8 / 48 = 530 Hz
Working with Jock Herd, in 1926 Watt added an amplifier to each of the two arms of the antenna, and sent those signals into the X and Y channels of the oscilloscope. As hoped, the radio signal produced a pattern on the screen that indicated the direction of the strike, and the slow-decay phosphor gave the operator ample time to measure it ...
A portable, battery operated GT-302 Accumatic automatic direction finder for marine use. Radio direction finding, radio direction finder, or RDF, was once the primary aviation navigational aid. (Range and Direction Finding was the abbreviation used to describe the predecessor to radar. [2])
In practice, some UHF connector products will handle over 4 kV peak voltage. [19] Manufacturers typically test UHF jumpers in the 3-5 kV range. [citation needed] UHF connectors are standard on HF amateur amplifiers rated at 1500 + Watts output. [citation needed] In practice, voltage limit is set by the air gap between center and shield.
Ultra high frequency (UHF) is the ITU designation [1] for radio frequencies in the range between 300 megahertz (MHz) and 3 gigahertz (GHz), also known as the decimetre band as the wavelengths range from one meter to one tenth of a meter (one decimeter).

The degree of rotation of the compensator determines the range to the target by simple triangulation. [1] Coincidence rangefinders made by Barr and Stroud used two eyepieces, and may be confused with stereoscopic units. The second eyepiece showed the operator a range scale so the user could range and read the range scale simultaneously. [2] [3]
