32 FLIGHT 20 FEBRUARY I9C9 Efficient reliable AUTOMATIC VHF/DF at remarkably low cost INDICATOR UNIT WHICH CAN BE REMOTELY LOCATED IN CONTROL TOWER. MAIN EQUIPMENT IN A 4FT. RACK. ADCOCK AERIAL UNIT WITH SENSE ELEMENT. The new Ekco automatic VHF direction-finding equipment gives cathode-ray tube presentation of the sensed bearing of a transmission on any one selected frequency in the 118-132 Mc/s band (standard). (Alternatives: 100-118 Mc/s: 132-156 Mc/s). Facilities can be incorporated for operating simultaneously on two channels in the band using one aerial system. Remarkably low cost has been achieved by introducing an entirely new method of deriving bearing and sense information from an Adcock aerial. This makes possible an installation of outstanding simplicity and reliability, well within the scope of even small airports.
