  C. Patton, A. Hrubetz, & J. Lahr--your copies of the short period =

     I need some help on mailing addresses for S. Hammond, L. Conklin & =
F. Cooper---
      Thanks Chris for your comments on geophones.  I remember showing =
the short period vertical design to a geophysicist who had considerable =
experience in exploration using geophones.  He said--"Why not use a =
geophone?"  We got hold of several used discards in good condition and =
tried them.  They  are "strong motion" in nature, but with todays =
amplification one can adapt.  The units we had were periods less than a =
1 second, and were underdamped for our purposes.  We wanted parameters =
to match the 1 second vertical Springnether (sp) professional sensor the =
Geology Dept. was using at that time--for comparison purposes.  We never =
pursued the idea further--but felt it had possibilities.
       No doubt there are persons out there like Chris that have had =
some experience with geophones.  They are compact--a neat package and =
reasonably economical--a quick way to go vertical-- if you can adapt the =
parameters to be within the wishes of an amateur seismologist.
