Yeah ... no telling what they're up to. Assume any loran site should be able to TX whatever GRI they 
want. Based on the line strength and audiblity I'd guess Wildwood but would need to DF to be sure. 
Now that the WX is improving, need to get to work on the single turn 10' loop ... turned by an old 
Ham M rotator. Been wanting to do this for a few years. In the distant past I found the Ham M to be 
reasonably accurate when pointing a 2' 10 GHz dish so hoping it's useful for DF work. Also, as a 
side benefit, hoping SJ can be dropped into the deep null. He's 165° from here - in just the right 
spot off the side of a loop. I'll lose f/b compared to the big K9AY ... but you can't have 
everything. F/B is more important during the summer 'off season' anyway.
