  • Description:
    The goal was to produce local Loran-C grid maps for the New Hampshire coast area where the Coast Guard specifies an accuracy of plus or minus .25 miles (1320 feet). The first task was to acquire a Loran-C receiver, then design and build a mobile power supply and data collecting unit. Data for Loran-C time delays, latitude and longitude, and the signal to noise ratio for selected points were collected over a five-month period. The data were stored in a computer and used to calculate the localized Loran-C grid maps. The completed maps were checked at arbitrary points, against Loran-C receiver output. The raw data are available in a second volume entitled Loran-C Master Data-list.
