Hello Claude,
Austron 2100F will only be good for the old LORAN-C, not any enhanced
e-LORAN.
Austron has been long out of business, so I would not expect any field
upgrade options.
I have not heard of others doing mods to the 2100F, to be fully e-LORAN
capable.
Brooke has the manual set on a CD. You will be happy with his product.
Other commercial, laboratory grade, LORAN-C timing receivers like the
Stanford Research Systems model FS700 will not do e-LORAN to the best of
my knowledge.
The LOCUS brand receivers are a modern RX, but I do not know their
e-LORAN capability.
