Everything old is new again

Never happen,the govt. decided loran is out of date ,so be it.
 
While I have my doubts, there is this, reported Jan. 2013:

"The General Lighthouse Authorities of the UK and Ireland (GLA) have announced that ships in the Port of Dover, its approaches and part of the Dover Strait can now use eLoran radio navigation technology as a backup to satnav systems like GPS and Galileo. What is considered the world’s busiest shipping route is the first to deploy eLoran to counter jammers and space weather, the GLA said in a statement."

A reasonably inexpensive, highly functional system that is independent of GPS, and could function well in times of satellite signal failure.
We have that system here in the US...wait a second....ohh noo!
