Hi Folk,  I think I have found  my mystery earthquake.  It was the  M3.7 =
04/24/2007 04:24:09 utc from Alaska

This is what happen, "someone might learn from my mistake"  I adjust my =
clock manually, often it is off by many seconds, I advance the clock to =
the next minute, and when the times match I push "okay" to reset my =
computer clock, to the correct time.  Works fine unless I put in an =
extra minute.  So instead of an adjustment of + 4 second I adjusted +64 =
seconds.

I went to the second station, we are operating, at the Museum.  That =
station recorded the same event and the P and S were placed correctly.  =
I was sure my problem had to do with my equipment, and this event was =
surely the Alaska  M3.7

I made an clock adjustment of +64 seconds to my station and the P and S =
were right on.

The thing that fooled me was I could not believe a M 3.7 from Alaska =
4816km or 2992 miles from Boise was so pronounced.
