Today is the last day that the LORAN chains will be fully operational in the USA. As I write this the US government is starting the process of decommissioning with total closure no later than the end of October 2010.
This means that if you are currently using LORAN then you will have to switch over to another system of electronic navigation with all due haste as the position fix if you can get one at all can no longer be relied upon.
