    Tracking Locating

    Is there equipment that radio operators can purchase that can track signals locations of a CB 11 meter radio transmission ?
    Living in Central Texas, my CB handle is Gearbox and my DX call sign is 222 Triple Duce.

    you can use a couple of CB people and triangulate the signal you want to find. A method used for years in what was called a Fox Hunt. Didn't take long once you got the hang of it. Specialized equipment would be exspensive and you still would need others like in the Fox Hunt

    Finding a signal strength meter would help also, I have an old Vanco SWR/signal meter

    the rf gain feature on your cb radio is your friend, try turning is down and you might try googling the term "FOX HUNTING"
