Does anyone know if are able to recieve the Canadian Loran C signals in New England. The Canadian east coast chain will be operational until some time in October, I am wondering if my loran will pick up this chain, it uses two US signals, Nantucket and Caribu. I hate to dump it if it still works. My old Micrologic is as accurate as my GPS in most cases. The chart of coverage shows it covers well into MA. I think the chain is 5930.
