Well A couple of things. They are not the gov. They go home on the weekends. So do take a listen to 100KC during the week. I looked at the austron 5000 it was a loran station monitor. What a beasty it actually is. Though the nixies are nice. I guess my loran simulator would drive it. But can't imagine what it must actually weight. My older austron 2000 is heavy and a bear to operate. Regards Paul.
