I depend indirectly on WWVB via an "atomic" wall clock for timing. I use a
DI-194 Dataq A/D for data recording. This device allows event marks to be
placed on the recorded data, and I use the clock to pick off minute marks. I am
very satisfied with my setup, but I do not know if it could be readily adapted
to WinSDR. Please take a look at:
http://www.jclahr.com/science/psn/mcclure/timing/index.html
and tell me what you think.
I avoid the time delay distortion normally encountered with filtering by
using my application called "WQFilter.exe", which uses low-pass filters of my
own design. These filters are applied both forward and backward in time. They
therefore do not work in real time, but are useful in preparing WinQuake event
files.
This application can be downloaded from
http://www.jclahr.com/science/psn/mcclure/wdq_utilities/index.html
It is contained in the ZIP file "seismic_dataq.zip". It works with PSN Type
4 files. It also has a filter which digitally extends the long period
response of my sensors, which have natural periods of only 6, 8, and 13 seconds,
respectively. I use it to prepare all my event files from station REM, Locust
Valley, NY. My prepared waveforms compare very closely with those from the nearby
LDEO station PAL. Real-time and archival drum plots from PAL can be seen at:
