> Hello The Net:
>
> LORAN signals are still being received at a 89700 microsecond GRI.
> I concur with others that there is only one station transmitting the
> master(M) and the slave(X) signals.
> My SRS FS-700 Rx shows equal received signal strength for both signals.
> Reports indicate the transmitter is at the old Coast Guard LORAN
> engineering site at Wildwood NJ.
>
> Since I turned the equipment on last Sunday night, I have had continuous
> lock on the
> FS-700, Austron 2100, and a 2100F.
>
> Compared to the GPS/DO 10 MHz from the T'Bolt, I am getting accuracies
> to the mid -13s,
> as indicated on the FS-700 phase meter.
>
> Next step is to lock up the signal on an oscope, triggered by an
> accurate 11.148272 KHz signal
> ( reciprocal of 89700microsec).
> That way I should be able to see the pulses and the E-LORAN
> experimentation.

> My set up at home uses a 40' high delta loop antenna, 2 orthogonal loops
> terminated on the top with a
> 600 ohm resistor, a ARR preamplifier with battery at the antenna , a RG6
> coax run to the shack,
> Astron 2084 multicoupler, then the receivers.
