[time-nuts] Questions about Austron 5000 Loran C receiver

[Bill Hawkins]

Andy, I'm truly sorry this didn't go anywhere, in spite of Forster's
attempt to hijack the thread. You got more replies from heavy hitters
than I ever did. (Excuse me, Magnus, if you do not consider yourself
as a heavy hitter.)

What you have is a device that has a CRT display and Nixie displays,
an antenna connection, and several 50 pin connectors. A creative
bit banger could make a marvelous display from this unit. Truly
creative bit bangers are hard to find these days.

Have I challenged anybody here? Andy is one of the good guys.

Bill Hawkins

Thanks to all who replied. I think I'm in over my head with this one. There
are far easier ways for me to try to receive Loran C, and I have no
shortage of projects.

So... Forgive me if this is not allowed on this reflector...

Free to a good home (after shipping): One Austron 5000 Loran C receiver.
Untested. Decent physical condx. See earlier post from me for a link to
photos.

If interested, please contact me off list.
