[ARC5] Loran

[Waldo Magnuson]

      Loran-C was decommissioned 10 or 15 years ago so your set is not useful now.  I have 4 or 5 units myself.  There is experimental work going on (mostly east coast) with eLoran.  I don't know if the C units will be adaptable if the E ever goes operational.  I flew Loran-C for many years and it was easy to use and as accurate as GPS when the SA was used for the first few years GPS was operational.

   Folks,
   A retired co-worker gave me a LORAN C set from his sailboat with antenna and a packet of documentation.
   What's it good for?
   I have not powered it up.(12V).
   Thanks in advance for any info.
