Thats what my second one was for.
We have 2 on our boat, one is a dummy, just to even out the look.
BTW put the antennas straight vertical. They work better and don't look stupid.
LORAN was mostly gone from the world by 1990. There was maybe an active chain in Asia, but GPS had pretty much replaced it when the OPs boat was rigged. The whip antennas used were also different from VHF.
