[time-nuts] Loran C sounds

Hi all;
Just an aside, after hearing dual rated Lorsta Dana for the last 25 years, it is interesting to now hear a single rated chain. Rather than the syncopated clatter of Dana, now just a smooth pitter! The east coast Canadian chain is much weaker here in northern Indiana than Dana (about 125 miles air) but still quite copyable on my IC-725. 
As far as useability at this point, while Dana was still on I switched my 2100F over to GRI 5930 and it only took about 1/2 hour to be locked and start reading my Austron 1250 frequency numbers. I get my main frequency reference from a TAPR T-bolt, but the Austron 2100F was a fun experiment. I guess the next Loran adventure can be DXing chains.
Regards; Rich
