Hi,  When I enlarge the unknown events, the initial single is generally =
just a spike, a little like a "M" or "W" in shape.   It has some length =
but short in duration, it has no dilation or compression that I can see. =
Just that shape followed by nothing and one mins later another signal =
different in shape, but about the same size.

These events only occur during day time hours.  When I get a series of =
them they last about 10 mins, maybe 5 events each lasting 1 to 1.5 mins =
each. All the shapes are different.  No pattern that I can see.  So they =
sometimes look like earthquakes, but I check other Idaho State stations =
and they don't show them.  Other times it is just one "M" shaped signal. =
  I am not near any major highways, but there is a busy intersection 1/2 =
mile away,  and at one point the timing seemed to be that of rush hour =
evening traffic. And that maybe part of it.   I also am about 10 miles =
from the mountains.

I did as Chris suggested with the AM radio but I could not hear anything =
of the radio which coincided.
I have eliminated wind or weather, at least any weather I can observe.
No road construction that I am aware of.

About the only thing I can say for sure is they don't happen at night.
The sensor is now in my basement and does not pickup any street traffic. =
 I don't see it picking up any of our household appliances. It does =
respond if you approach the sensor, as it flexes the concrete floor.

Thanks, Ted

  Hi Ted -

  =20

  Just one question - these unknown events - what is the initial P wave =
direction - are they consistent in one direction or are do they show =
both compression and dilation.  If the initial P waves are different, do =
they show any pattern?

  Hi,  The last week, in Idaho, has been rather quiet.  Some weather =
changes is about all there is to watch on the helicorder.

  This is a general question which only quiet times would allow for.   =
During the day time hours I receive a spike about once an hour to =
several times an hour.  No pattern.   They all have something's in =
common.  They are short in duration less than one minute. Things are =
quiet and then another hit.

  Sometimes these hits cover ten mins, on and off.   I live in the city, =
next to the mountains, no blasting or construction that I know of.

  =20

  =20

  I don't think they are weather, They don't repeat at the same time =
each day. They are short but strong.  Kind of like someone is dropping  =
a large weight.    Sometime three or four of different shape, in a row.

  =20

  =20

  Any ideas as to their origin?    Thanks, Ted

Hi Ted=20 =96

 

Just one = question =96=20 these unknown events =96 what is the initial P wave direction =96 are = they=20 consistent in one direction or are do they show both compression and=20 dilation.  If the initial P waves are different, do they show any = pattern?
