Direction Finder Loop. It Looks like a Ring, a Circle of Metal, that rotates, they place them in tear droped shaped farings so they: Move easer, and dont cause so much drag. To Find a direction of a signal and home in on it the Loop is rotated, it receaves only from two sides and the signal fades when the loop is not facing it, this way they get the bearing.
