Hi
For NTP grade timing, there are still a lot of broadcast sources out there.
You *do* need to be careful about propagation and when to (not) use
them during the day. Focusing effort on that part of it is probably more
useful than waiting for funding to appear for eLoran….

Hi
The ground wave (hopefully) travels a shorter path. The gotcha comes in when
the phase shift is 180 degrees and you start nulling things out. That will play
havoc
on the “stuff” that works out the envelope shape for detecting the third pulse.
Again, I didn’t design a from scratch receiver

Isn't the ground wave shorter and hence gets there sooner? Couldn't you use
that to calibrate an uncalibrated local standard?

Hi
The Russian system runs an incompatible pulse format. A “normal” Loran receiver
pretty much pukes when you try to tune to the Russian chains. It also is a bit
unclear
just how stable their system is timing wise.
For timing you *need* ground wave. Anything that is more than 1,000 miles away

The spectrum is about what you would expect from a bunch of short pulses.

What does the spectrum look like? Is that even a reasonable question for
that sort of signal?
How well do typical old/analog spectrum analyzers work on that sort of
signal? (as compared

Actually, they're not.
The envelope changes the frequency in rather interesting ways. I used

Hi
Loran C is a pulse based system. All transmitters world wide run on the same
100 KHz frequency. The thing that
distinguishes one transmission from another is the repetition rate of the
signal. If you have a spectrum analyzer
and hook up a piece of wire near one of the transmitters, the
All Loran C signals are transmitted at precisely 100.0... KHz.
They are a pulse signal system, where each member of the chain uses
a different repetition rate to time the placement of its pulses.
The repetition rates are designed so that they pulses from any
two chains are not coincident,

So if you thought about seeing if you could receive eLoran on your Loran C

pretty sure none of the receivers we have know or care about it.
