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.
