a lot.
Because they are directional, Steve should be able to get some in-room bearings, and also eliminate a few (a lot of?) stations from his wanted list.
Then he can consider a spread rhombic, or one or two, laid on top of each other, and a switch.
Because most stations use mixed polarity, it should be okay to use a vertical dipole to search, and install horisontal rhombics on the ceiling that point in the directions he finds that work.
Okay? :-)
