I'm actually jealous of your LORAN time/frequency metrology capability 
:).  Apparently UrsaNav (headquartered locally in North Billerica, MA!) 
are the ones performing these particular aforementioned R&D efforts; I 
have visited their corporate website and have read about their projects 
and product portfolio, and have developed a liking for this company 
(despite being anarchosocialist).  The reason is that philosophically 
I'm a strong advocate of resilient technology and social policies, and 
consequently that is the entire purpose of my nonprofit time/frequency 
metrology and transfer project.  As an example, the redundant 
timekeeping and NTP transfer minicomputers will be provided with 7--10 
WWV and CHU channels received with redundant auto-failover HF antennae, 
just in case some channels fail (and that is in addition to redundant 
GPS and of course the set of redundant UPS-, solar-, and 
generator-backed standards, which hopefully will grow to there being a 
fused ensemble of two modern Cs standards at any one time, rather than 
the current scheme of the VXI-based controller simply running one at a 
time in an auto-failover configuration).
