518.1some observationsMSCSSE::BERENSAlan BerensTue Feb 07 1989 08:0785
Some observed TDs measured with a TI 9900N loran. Some of these have 
been measured more than once, and the measurements vary by up to 1 
microsecond, possibly due to changes in the bouy's position. The numbers 
in parentheses are the TD corrections required to give the correct 
lat-long conversion for my loran.

518.2TD's needed in Mystic Conn area.VAXWRK::WOODBURYThu Jun 21 1990 16:368
    Does any one have any observed TDs between the Cape Cod Canal and
    Mystic Conn?  Sailing from Rockport MA for the Cat Boat Assoc.  100
    year Bash.  We have Rockport to the canal covered, but we haven't
    ventured beyond there since we got the Loran. 

    Thanks to Alan for the numbers in .1.
