Time synchronization of NASA tracking stations via LORAN-CA report is presented of the results observed in comparison between LORAN-C and accurate portable clocks carried to the stations of NASA's world-wide space tracking and data network. It is believed that such information can provide a meaningful determination of the accuracy of the LORAN-C technique. The investigation shows the need for the employment of portable clocks during, or shortly after the installation of LORAN-C receivers.
