Yesterday was the first time I had the opportunity to take my boat out for a shakedown run, not having it on the water since November..periodic runs in the driveway not counting, after setting out for a little run and checking all the systems, I noticed that my old loran, that I keep mounted and in operation as a backup was not getting a signal....none........Oh heck what's wrong with it now? Today I started to get into the wiring and start to do diagnostic checks, when I remembered that the Loran system is supposed to be shut down.......
Saves me the time of checking all of the wiring! Checked the internet today...you got it~! NO MORE LORAN! Good thing I have my gps system but I still miss the old familiar things, many times I have been thankful to have the Loran system, just seems like a waste........



Goodbye to our old friends!
