Don't care if you are a moderator. I wrote my text towards my audience not as a technical writer

All you guys need to learn to navigate with tools that predate GPS. Something like a sextant, octant, backstaff or an astrolabe.

If you have receive the signal from 3 different locations then you only need to measure the signal strength and make a ratio from those locations. Simple triangle calculation where a2+b2=c2. The stronger the signal strength the closer the device is to the receiver.
