Hi,
The usefulness of alternative signals is less and less debated. There
are some strong opponents to eLoran. At the same time, the use of
precision timing and the dependency, the trouble modes etc. is to some
degree still dawning on decision makers. eLoran still have some issues
due to the frequency range used. Accepting foreign [sic] signals remains
somewhat of an issue. Useful and practical use of network for backup
remains to be to be seen in wider use. The popular options discussed is
neither practical or easy to deploy. Then again, I'm biased in that regard.
26 Jan did some good, and upcoming leap-second comes very timely in that
regard.
Cheers,
Magnus

Hi
Given that the transmit end of these systems is actually the cheap. quick, and
easy
part of it (even with GPS), not making a decision for years is a bad thing. The
longer
they push out a system decision, the further out any sort of target use gets.
Running
Loran with antiques in my or your basement does not count in this regard. What
counts is putting it into any sort of infrastructure use. That will *only*
happen if
regulations require it. Even if they do, it’s a “several decades” sort of
process
to make that all happen.

I think we are struggling with what to do. Support a low cost solution or
invest in yet another satellite system at $$$$$$ that went bust and is
working its way back to life.
Then it hits the government. God knows the answer to that. Goes to the
highest bidder. :-)
Best get off that thread. Not useful.
Signals running fine and everything here is happy. The Austrons and SRS.
All down to the -11th and thats on a so so GPSDO.
Regards
Paul.

It's interesting in that it's clearly not dead yet, rather the opposite.

The system works and they are using the system for various demonstrations
to government types. It is indeed Washingtons speed to resolution thats
taking the time.
So my crystal ball says nothing at all on what and when.
But that said the fact that its on for a month lets me check some
references.

Hi
Has there been any indication of just what they eventually will be doing?
Is this a never ending series of experiments or do they now have plans
to put something more perminanalt on the air?

The Wildwood, NJ eLoran transmitter will be continuously broadcasting
from
0900 (EST) on 21 October 2016 through 1200 (EST) on 22 November 2016.
Wildwood will be broadcasting as 8970 Master and Secondary most of the
time
but occasionally may operate at other rates.
