1533.0. "Wanted: King loran instructions" by ENOVAX::WHITCOMB () Wed Jun 13 1990 18:44

    
    
    	Recently, I found a "King 8001" loran at a tag sale for
    almost nothing. Unfortunately, the seller had no info about
    it (said he got it in a lot that he had himself purchased).
    The manufacture is King Marine Corp and thatis about all I 
    know about it except that it does show where it thinks it was
    last ( Naragansette Bay ).  Unfortunately, it is missing a 
    coupler and directions.  Therefore, if someone out there has
    this type of loran would they please photocopy the instructions
    and send them to me by interoffice mail. I work in the Enfield,
    Ct plant (ENO). 
        
        As far as a coupler goes, I guess I will have to get that 
    from the manufacturer however they want 95.00 $ for it so I'll
    want to be real sure it works first. Anyone know how I can do 
    this without the coupler?
    
    	Appreciate any help I can get... John W.

Jeff Gardiner (ASDS::GARDINER) has a King LORAN on "Tranquility". He's on his
way back from Bermuda right now. He'll be back in Boston in about a week. 
You might send him some mail...

1533.2I CAN GET THE INFO FOR YOUASDS::GARDINERArchitects-R-UsMon Jul 02 1990 16:118
    I have the same model and really like it.  I lost my instruction
    booklets and owner's manual in hurricane Hugo on St. Croix and will be
    contacting King Marine ( they are in Florida) to get new copies.  Do
    you want me order extra copies for you??

    Thank you for your offer, but another noter is sending me a set of
    spare instructions he has by Interoffice Mail.  This person also has
    a spare coupler which he has offered to sell me.  So far, I'm not sure
    mine works and am anxiously awaiting the instructions to see if I
    should spend any money on the unit.
    
    I am glad to hear that you like yours and hope I can use you as a 
    resource if I need any further infomation.
    
    Thanks again, John
