I'm sorry, I can't seem to find the 8" yagi antenna anymore (I do not even remember it clearly, 8" may have not have been the length of the antenna and another dimension).
I think I understand the purpose of this device.However, reading the website a little leads me to believe that elctrified doesn't understand how it works, and that it doesn't do what he thinks it does!.
It doesn't give you a nice 2D plot of where an item is located, accurate to an inch or so - it's just a DF (direction finding system) and you follow it for maximum strength until you find the transmitter.
well, as you have read on their site is not yet on the market.It's not a 'lot' of money, why not buy one and experiment?.
Interesting thought, if you know it, can you tell me how to shield an antenna (just the principle) it would save me some time in searches for that.. Maybe you can use a regular antennae and shield it on 3 sides so it could only receive signals from one direction?
wolud you explain that a little more? I cant figure out, but what dimension for that device?Alternatively, the 3 sides closed enclosure will make the sensor/receiver directional. If using a light source there is a reflector which will focus the light in one direction. It is the same whether Light, Radio Frequencies, Ultrasonic or Sound. A concave cavity with the sensor placed at the focal point will be a good starte
true, I have spent a lot of time, well not really so much, what I could in my little spare time, but it doesnt mean I am ready to go work,would be too much cool hahahaNow, Think you've spent enough time on the net. Just get down to work and let us know how it goes!!

I'm doubtful you can get it to work at all?, but i'm absolutely positive you'll never get anywhere near the accuracy you seem to be hoping for.
