Extract

The difficulties of determining latitude and longitude under adverse weather conditions, when neither the Sun nor stars can be sighted, are well-known, and the advantages of a non-visual system of position finding which could operate through clouds or fog are too obvious to require emphasis.

A Radio Sextant, which detects and locks-on to 8 mm. radiation from the Sun, has already been made and tested in America with reputedly excellent results. An analysis of both the theoretical and the practical design factors is given in the present paper, together with the results of successful experiments made in Great Britain.
