Properties:

A grouping of mechanical, electrical and electronic components which, operated together, utilize radio direction finding principles to track a radiosonde or radar target in its trajectory, permitting the indication and/or recording of the elevation and azimuth angles of the balloon with respect to fixed reference points. Used for determining direction and speed of winds aloft by triangulation.
