Is anybody monitoring eLoran from Anthorn? I'm less than 100 miles from the transmitter but an FS700 has been unable to find the signal for several days. Last time this happened though it turned out to be a local antenna problem so I didn't want to cry wolf until I found time to take a closer look. I'm now monitoring the signal with an LF receiver and spectrum display using a different antenna and the usual 100KHz signal is missing. I am seeing a slowly drifting signal between 103 and 104 Khz that does look similar to a Loran signal but am not set up on this receiver to do more than just observe it so can't be sure just what it is. It might that there's a fault or the system is down for antenna maintenance, there's no alerts on either these days as there is for MSF, or perhaps it's something longer term. Anyone know what the score is? Nigel, GM8PZR

Just checked my four Austrons (2 on the "Master", 2 on the "Slave" signal. All four had lost tracking, all four sat at acquire at present, and have been for long enough to suggest they can't lock on. Hopefully it is a fault, or antenna work, I'll give the Austrons another prod later if they don't wake up. Last I heard, eLoran was good until at least the end of 2017 from Anthorn. Iain
