Is loran off the air now or is it still hanging on? It might be fun to connect
up an antenna and see if the above still works.
I thought loran almost died and then something was done to fix the
mid-contenent gap and then almost died and then, for some reason made a
big resurgence - maybe in response to the need for a "plan b" in case
GPS stops working or is jammed...
anyway, I thought it was funded again and going strong. Did I make that
up?
(always nice to have a plan B when cruising at FL 350 :-) no doubt also
helpful in the middle of the atlantic)
