Hi David,
I've only used Loran specific hardware receivers for actual decoding, so
no doubt others will be better able to answer your question re suitable
software, but one thing to watch out for is that the stations don't actually
transmit a named identifier.
With all stations transmitting at 100KHz, identification depends on the
pre-allocated group repetition interval (GRI), with the secondary stations in
a particular group being identified by their time relationship to the
master.
Purpose made receivers that identify stations by name do so from internally
stored data, which is why my FS700s always insist that Anthorn is really
Loop Head in Ireland, SRS jumped the gun a bit but never issued an updated
PROM after the proposed station at Loop Head didn't go into service:-)
It's certainly fun just monitoring today though, both Master and Y station
are back at the moment but the modulation's been changing about enough to
suggest someone might even be trying to play tunes on it:-)
Regards

I'm receiving pulses on 100 kHz with AirSpy and a SpyVerter, but I have no
Windows software to decode the signal and determine just which LORAN it is.
Can anyone recommend suitable Windows software?
Being located in Edinburgh the signal is reasonable strong.
Thanks,
David
