Alan - as long as you do it on 49 MHz or 27 MHz R/C channels, there is no 
problem --- if you can live with the low power.  49 MHz is 100 mw - good 
for 150 yards perhaps. 27 MHz (NOT CB channels) will get you a quarter 
mile range.
  
As far as an accurate, sensitive, direction finder, portable, 
inconspicuous, the limit right now is about 30 yards.  That's for 
portable.  If you have a mobile installation, the range is much more.  If 
you succeed in breaking the 30 yard barrier, my cousin Charlie the FCC 
inspector would like to talk sales and price with you!!
