There seems to be someone thinking that all LORAN-C stations are shut down,
and this is not correct.
I know first hand from the Eidi and Bø chain, that both are drifted by
their host nations, as this responcibility was transfered to them from the
USCG in 1995. I beleve most on foregin soil are drifted by their host
nations.

There is an interest in keeping the LORAN-C chains Eidi and Bø, as they
give good coverage in the Barents sea. The current agreement keeps the
chains in operation to 2018.

BR.
Thomas.
