It would work. The delta-t is a few miliseconds. This gives enough precision for a decent estimate of the direction of the signal.

Now estimating the distance is a different matter.

The gravity waves redshift just like any other wave. So, they have estimated a distance: 1.3B light-years.

I think we're on the same page; I was referring to triangulation, which would give the distance and not just direction.
