Hi Magnus been a while since have emailed. Its one site that was a test transmitter. Its in New Jersey, USA. The goal of the testing I believe is to establish the viability of an alternate PNT reference to GPS. Additionally the ability to communicate some level of message broadcast. This should be identical to proposals I have heard of in Europe. But I have no direct relationship to any of this. Like you, a very interested observer and hope that eLORAN wins the battle. Unfortunately there are many alternate proposals such as using other satellites. Hmmm if I wanted to advance my career in the Air Force or Space Force (Yes thats actually real now). Would I select the lowly reliable as heck eLORAN at sub $100 M/year to operate. Or the glorious space based proposals in $B region. Never mind that at least 3 countries now have demonstrated killer satellites. Sorry for that editorial. Regards Paul WB8TSL
