[Elecraft] K3 Dual Receive Surprise

I recall .... from a LONG time ago ... when I was a R/O on 
a USC&GS vessel that the LORAN A (~2 mHz) receiver's 
display routinely showed several different "times / delays" on 
the arrival times of a signal from a far-off transmitter in the chain.
This was especially apparent during the transition period between
day and night.

LORAN A depended on timing of different signal arrival times from 
the different transmitters in the chain, but the "propagation-caused"
delays took a skilled operator to pick the correct one to use.
