I can't understand why Loran has continued as long as it has - waste of money IMO. Shut down one or two stations and the system is blind for the region covered. Clouds? Fog? and they system tells you that you're somewhere else.
GPS OTOH uses 24 sats, of which your receiver needs to see only 2 to 3. Relatively speaking, problems are rare. I've still got lots of TDs that I need to convert to GPS, and I know time is short. That alone is not a good reason IMO to spend millions of tax dollars on inferior technology.
