SI-TEX/KODEN ANNOUNCES DEVELOPMENT
ON NEXT GENERATION
GPS/WAAS/LORAN RECEIVER

     SI-TEX/KODEN is pleased to announce its partnership in the development 
program for the next generation navigation receivers capable of meeting 
harbor Entrance and Approach requirements.   The SI-TEX GPS-90/KODEN KGP-913 
GPS receiver series have been selected to serve as the platform for a 
prototype GPS/WAAS/Loran receiver.  The units will incorporate state of the 
art digital loran receiver technology from Reelektronika, b.v., a firm based 
in the Netherlands.  The new receiver is designed to operate with a Loran 
"H" field antenna, carrying the same form as the present SI-TEX marine 
beacon antenna.  These new receivers have been in evaluation testing for the 
USCG and FAA as part of the Loran Recapitalization Program.

     The Loran Recapitalization Program is a Department of Transportation 
and Department of Homeland Security (DOT/DHS) initiative to determine 
whether an enhanced Loran system can provide the accuracy, availability, 
continuity, and integrity to support GPS in both safety and economically 
critical applications.
