Antenna AT-339/PRC when used with Radio Set AN/PRC-10 or Radio Set AN/PRC-6 comprises an effective homing device that permits the radio operator to find the direction of a transmitter tuned to the frequency of the radio set and to proceed in that direction. Antenna AT-340/PRC can similarly be used with Radio Set AN/PRC-8 or Radio Set AN/PRC-9. Highly accurate bearings generally are not required for homing; therefore, an azimuth scale is not provided. When desired, approximate azimuth readings can be obtained by sighting a pocket compass in the direction of the indicated bearing.
