[time-nuts] Re: eLoran precision timing services complimenting GNSS timing in China

[paul swed]

Good morning to the group.
I did reread the paper carefully and with some historical interest they
seem to swap LORAN C and eLORAN early in the paper.
But that said China is re-leveraging the LORAN C towers they had for at
least Western China. They need to build 3 stations in Eastern China for
coverage in that area.
As mentioned they seem to be using Eurofix for data transmission.
It was an interesting read.
In the US the longest eLORAN test is still running. It may extend beyond
the end of the year. But unfortunately for me and the East Coast I have
never received the stations in the west that are operating. There are SDR
stations around Canada and the US and on those sites I do hear the stations.
Regards
Paul
