The antenna was manually rotated by the radio operator much like the sound operator rotates the two sound heads. It would not continually spin like a radar antenna.

I don't think IFF existed back then. They relied on radio calls with the code words of the day for identification. They think that the USS Seawolf was possibly sunk by US aircraft/destroyers, because supposedly it did not give the correct response to the destroyer's (USS Rowell) ID call.

1) For full circular survey DF antenna should turn on 180° (or slightly less)... ??? ... , but on pic (#18) it's impossible ..

I stand corrected on the IFF. I learn something new every day. When I go to the Batfish this Saturday, I'll keep an eye out for the IFF boxes in the con.

Considing how many times I've been to that page, I should have known that... :roll:

Thanks!
