Radio-amateurs have so-called "fox hunt" games, which include a transmitter (around the size of a shoe box) and a small (hold in your palm) directional receiver. The game idea is to find the transmitter, which has been hidden somewhere. These work on the ham frequencies, so you would need to get a licence for these. I'm not sure if you could make a CB version of these... Otto J.
