Hearing LORAN chattering away on 100 kHz.

Unable to ID them, possibly Dana & Seneca are at it again (but I'm unsure).

However, nothing on the LORAN-C receiver. Its been on for about 15 minutes so far.

The receiver never did lock onto it, after several hours of trying. Unknown if the local QRM 95-98 kHz is killing the signal or if they're transmitting something that isn't LORAN-C compatible.
