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.

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?? Jeff | |||||

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 |
