>From an earlier post today which referred to a  Loran website:

Loran A - 1750/1850/1900/1950 kHz

Pulsed power output 1.6MEGAWATTS

I remember what this used to sound like.... the EI's used to call it "THE 
FISHBONE" - because that's what you'd imagine it might look like in visual form 
as you listened to it's pulses!

No wonder anyone out East could not hear JA until it shut down in July of 
1980!

1.6MW on 1900 and the JA window from 1907.5-1912.5kHz at the time!!!

Tks for the post.
