Loop Head never happened, but the British are transmitting at least
a 7499 slave from somewhere in the UK.  Not sure if the dual-rate

Megapulse.com used to have the most up to date list of Loran data
but it seems to be out of date with respect to European stuff now.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
