CHAYKA is a Russian radio navigation system, similar to LORAN-C. It is also run on 100 kHz and is described like LORAN-C by its GRI.
There are 5 CHAYKA-chains in use.
- GRI 8000 - European Chain
- GRI 4970 - Northwest Chain
- GRI 5960 - North Chain
- GRI 7950 - East Chain
- GRI 5980 - Russian-American Chain
Remarkable CHAYKA-transmitters
The following CHAYKA-transmitters work with very high power and may use as similiar LORAN-C-transmitters very tall mast antennas.
- CHAYKA transmitter Bryansk ( GRI 8000, 53°7'50.600" N, 34°54'54 44.800" E, 1150 kW)
- CHAYKA transmitter Petrozavodsk ( GRI 8000, 61°45'32.400" N, 33°41'40.400" E, 1150 kW)
- CHAYKA transmitter Slonim ( GRI 8000, 53°7'55.200" N, 25°23'46.000" E, 1150 kW)
- CHAYKA transmitter Simferopol ( GRI 8000, 44°53'20.600" N, 33°52'32.100" E, 1150 kW)
- CHAYKA transmitter Syzran ( GRI 8000, 53°17'17.600" N, 48°6'53.400" E, 1150 kW)
