Tres Pinos is ~120km (75 miles) south of my station. If you are interested
in looking at the different responses of different sensors, this would be a
good time to look at my event files
http://www.seismicnet.com/cgi-dos/event.exe). Here's a short description for
each event file:

*.LCN, *.LCE and *.LCZ: These are the high gain channels from a
Forced-Balance Accelerometer (Kinemetrics FBA-23A). I use this sensor as a
reference since it was calibrated at Kinemetrics about two years ago.
Maximum acceleration was ~400 ug for the 4.2 event.

*.LC1: My N-S Lehman, *.LC8 and *.LC3 my high/low frequency ports of my N-S
SG sensor.

*.RWN, *.RWE and *.RWZ: There files come from one of the 4.5HZ 3 component
used Mark Products L-15B geophones I am selling.

For more information on my station and the sensors I am recording please see
http://www.seismicnet.com/rwcstation.html.

Hopefully mother nature won't produce any larger calibration pulses....
