He didn't say Loran C he said Loran. That is the old system that used to
operate just above the AM broadcast band and took away most of the 160 meter
ham band. That hasn't been around for decades. I don't think there is a
version of it operating anywhere in the world.

Some one gave me an old Loran receiver. It fires up, the keypad and

Questions:
1) I think there are still Loran transmitters?
2) What does a Loran antenna look like? A random length of wire
strung up in the attic is doing nothing.
If you are in North America you are out of luck. You *might* pick up on
European LORAN-C transmitters.
So, locality first...
THEN we can advice you on what antenna needs you have... and then we also
needs to know what LORAN C receiver you have...
Cheers,
