I've never done anything like this but I wonder if you could
avoid the rotating direction finder and have a non-moving
solution. Perhaps with a couple of stations along the
perimeter of the field with two directional antennae
pointing in somewhat different directions you could
interpolate the difference in signal strength to get a
bearing from each?

Listeners can be on mobile target and fixed.
Results on multiple scans can be compared.
Signal will rise to a peak and fall again giving extra
information (or less
:-).)
Scan rate can be quite high.
