Frank,
I highly recommend Larry's A-D board and software. It has been a very
reliable system for us for the past 15 months, and we are looking into =
the
feasibility of converting many of the remote paper drum OGS sites to =
digital
using the same system.
We are in an urban setting only one mile from a major interstate =
highway, so
the filters in our location are very beneficial. Currently the gain for
OCO2Z is 545 with a 1 Hz 8-pole lp filter, and 100 second 1-pole hp =
filter.
We are in the process of constructing a new thermally stable =
underground
seismometer vault, and will most likely remove the hp filter after
installation.

Greg,

Nice to hear from you.  I picked up your site on a Google search for =
the=20
BB13.  I try to drop by each day to see the seismic activity at OCO.

I saw the recent Virginia event and I think I saw the big event in =
Algeria=20
although the times don't seem quite right.

It looks like a nice museum display you have set up there.  I might try =
to=20
drop by sometime.  I visit Missouri several times a year.

Thanks for the tips.  The last thing I need is a broken flexure.

I am thinking about using Larry's A/D.  Did you find the filters that=20
useful?  Do you run a lot of gain between the BB13 and the A/D?

Frank
