[time-nuts] Loran C D-Day

[paul swed]

When I was digging around I ran across a Canadian LORAN site equal to the
USCG and they have already signed off on shut down. Erurope will be fine for
quite a while like 10 years.
It seems crazy as this thought is, that they want a backup to GPS.
I have occasionally locked on to the European chains from the east coast.
But that said because its a skywave signal its stability is far less then
the US chains I use.
Regards
