It's something similar in destination like later used ZVG 16 direction finder device for FuG 16Z radio (with it's PR 16 loop antenna). Rarely seen on Emils (I recollect three or four machines with that) it was rather used on Stukas.

It's a small thing, Kuba, but the fixed loop with the FuG 16Z was not a direction finding device, but a homing device. With a DF loop (as you mentioned was used on the early-war a/c including the Stuka) you normally have a compass-like indicator that shows the direction of the station from your a/c. With the homing loop, you simply get an indication of which direction to turn to get to the tuned in station, together with 3-point indication of distance.
