Just wondering. What does a good LORAN unit cost vs. GPS?


I paid about $400 (IIRC) for a new Sitex EZ7 in the early-mid '80s.
That included the coupler but not the antenna. And that was the least
expensive unit I could find. It still works great though. And I got
more than my money's worth in just the first year I had it.

I have a couple of newer Raytheon
units that still work and I'm hanging on to them.


Funny, I was just wondering what I should do with mine. It still looks
brand new but I don't think it would go well mounted over my mantle
piece. I'd hate to throw it in the trash though.
