The politics of this system are a bit dubious as are the claims on accuracy
and freedon from jamming. But it does give us another off-air frequency
standard.

Subject: [time-nuts] BBC TV program "Click" has material about GPS
jammingand e Loran
"Click" is a short TV program produced by the BBC about tech related
things.
Anyway, the issue I see today (1/11/2014)
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b04p21jv
had a bit about GPS failure, GPS jamming, and use of eLORAN as a backup.
*Hopefully* you can see it on the BBC iPlayer if interested, although
I am not sure if those outside the UK can see it - you might need to
use a proxy server in the UK, since I have no idea if they block
access based on IP.
Also more on the BBC in the last 24 hours or so about this.
