Yes, they've been switching back and forth between one or two channels all
day, with the one channel state always being just the usual Anthorn Y
channel and the two channels always being Master plus the Y channel.
Sometimes the overall signal levels have been fluctuating quite a bit at
100 Miles from Anthorn, more so than usual, and when in the two channel
state both channels have always been at the same signal level, although
on a
few occasions the signal has shut down altogether for several minutes at a
time.
As it's now nearly 1850, and still transmitting Master and slave rather
than reverting to just the slave as it did at the end of the day
yesterday,
I'm even more encouraged to hope this might become the norm for some time
at
least.
I happen to receive the "GNSS Edition of Chronos Times" from
chronos.co.uk. While a "newsletter" (read advertisement) style email,
the like of which I'm sure we all get from various sources, the
following paragraph contained a sentence about the recent European LORAN
shutdown.
I won't quote the entire "newsletter", but the paragraph in question
reads:

We wish you a happy and prosperous 2016 and welcome to the first GNSS
edition of the Chronos Times. Apart from a number of new exciting
products shown below, the best news we had just before Christmas was
that eLoran transmissions for timing and data services will be
maintained going forward. Whilst the rest of Europe has decided to close
down its old Loran-C transmitters, the UK has confirmed that eLoran
transmissions from Anthorn will continue. This is early days for this
new service
---END QUOTE---
So, that's some good news at least. How long for, as Paul says is to be
determined, but at least it's positive news
Best Regards
Iain
