I have a minute.
The loran c simulator is designed to support the older loran timing
receivers and allows them to be used to measure references. Systems like the
austron 2000c and 2100f etc.
So you only need 1.
For location you need at least 3 transmitters and at some distance and they
must be controlled as to when they transmit. They can't all be masters.
So as a timing reference 1 is fine. Just need a amp and antenna.
