What was the stability of Loran when used to distribute time? (I'm assuming
I can use something like GPS for calibration.)
Wikipedia says:
The absolute accuracy of LORAN-C varies from 0.10-0.25-nautical-mile (185-463
m). Repeatable accuracy is much greater, typically from 60-300-foot (18-91 m).
60 feet would make it hard to get 30 ns accuracy, and that's probably at sea
rather than in the mountains.
