I've put some feelers out, Tom... will let you know what I find.
Well, you could tag the LORAN inop and not worry about it.
That may be the rule, but I learned a bunch from my DPE during the checkride. He loved to teach!But he is not allowed to teach during the exam.
Silly question, but if it's in the plane but the operator's manual is not on-board, is it not officially inop anyway? Of course, you could just disconnect the antenna...
Which wire is the antenna wire, it has no coax runing to it?
Tom, Does it even have a Loran antenna. If not, I'd be happy to sell him one. I have one for $.25 and a cup of coffee!
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Arna...wItem?hash=item190219161671&#ebayphotohostingany one know how to operate one?
WE have one installed in a 182 and no one knows how to operate it, it turns on OK, but after that we are lost.
HELP.
I think, Tom, we can placard that "Inop" with a clear conscience, don't you?
Here are some notes that might help you get started. I can get a Operation Manual. The price would be $ 79.98 plus shipping. If you would still like please feel free to contact me and I will get coming.
Thank you,

But it is not inop. If the DPE turns it on and it works, ? The DPE is not a new to this, he has been doing the DPE thing long enought to know how to use it.
But he is not allowed to teach during the exam.
No c/b you can collar?
