Popis:	This paper describes a microwave direction finding equipment and gives the results of flight tests carried out to investigate its possible use for air navigation.The system operates in the 3.2 cm. wavelength band. The aircraft equipment consists of a receiver which sweeps rapidly over a small frequency band, a directional aerial which is scanned in bearing and a cathode ray tube display. The ground beacons are low power c.w. oscillators with an omnidirectional aerial and operate at separate fixed wavelengths to facilitate identification.
