Hello All,
I would like to share the good news for those who have been looking for =
an inexpensive seismograph to purchase.  John Cole of Pearland, Texas, =
went to a machinist with his own design for a MIni-Mini Lehman and had =
him make up six or eight of the little fellows.  John and I live only =
ten miles apart and John presented one to me for test purposes.  I think =
the results have been outstanding.  I run mine with a 16 second period =
and you can look at my (FC2) recording of the 6.3, 6/11/00, Antarctic =
Ridge Earthquake posted on the PSN event list to see the results.  John =
also presented one to Don Wheeler who lives near Monroe, Louisiana.  His =
Mini-Mini Lehman recordings are posted as DW2.  I think John is =
mechanically gifted and he has experimented a great deal with the =
Lehman.  He is not in this for a profit but only to recover some of the =
money used in developing this little machine and for the satisfaction of =
knowing he has developed something that could be used in the class room. =
He feels strongly that he has a design that could readily be used by =
amateur seismologists and by teachers in the public schools and I agree =
with John.  We both say this with the qualification that the teacher =
should not be a complete "klutz."  He/she should have a little bit of =
mechanical aptitude. I am attaching a picture of the little fellow that =
has the footprint of less than two sheets of typing paper. Go to my web =
site SEISMOLOGY IN FRIENDSWOOD, TEXAS, USA at: =
http://freeweb.pdq.net/fxc/ for more information and an additional =
picture. You will find it has some unique features such as a guitar =
tuner screw that does away with the akward turnbuckle.
Regards,
Frank Cooper, Friendswood, Texas, USA =20
