A tilted loop technique has been developed to reduce bearing errors in loop HF directionfinder systems used on ionospherically propagated signals. Measures of signal elevation angle-of-arrival can be obtained. Theory of operation is stated. Field tests of an experimental model have verified the theory and disclosed significant improvements over a contemporary system.
