[Lowfer] E-Loran

[John Andrews]

Most of us have assumed that since the Loran-C system in North America 
was shut down some years ago (remember "Loran lines"?), that nothing was 
happening in this part of the world on 100 kHz. Wrong! As of June 19, an 
E-Loran station in Wildwood, NJ has been running, and the signal is 
quite loud in New England. See:

A screenshot of Spectrum Lab's Loran Monitor shows the signal this 
afternoon here in southern Maine. The GRI is 8970, which was the old 
Great Lakes rate for Loran-C. It sounds (by ear) somewhat different than 
the old system - looks like just a master and slave pulse.
