Greetings fellow PSN enthusiasts,

My name is Kay Wyatt and I am the Director of the Oregon Shakes Program =
(www.OregonShakes.com) which is trying to put seismograph in all public =
schools in Oregon starting in Lincoln County.  We have funding to =
purchase three AS-1 seismographs, but I am looking at alternatives =
before we make the purchase.  I currently run an AS-1 at my house and =
maintain an AS-1 at our local after school enrichment program in Depoe =
Bay Oregon.

Does anybody have the VolksMeter II which is made by RLL Instruments, a =
division of Zoltech Corp.  Their website is at =
http://www.rllinstruments.com/.  If anybody has any experience with this =
system (good or bad) I would be most interested in hearing from you.

I was also looking at the SEP Seismometer System which is sold by MUTR =
in the UK.  Their website is at =
http://www.mutr.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=3D18_412&products_id=
=3D9047.  Again, if anybody has any experience with this, good or bad, I =
am most interested.

Also, if you have suggestions on other educational seismometers, I would =
be very interested.  Our Lincoln County kids are incredibly excited =
about this program.  We may have a few budding PSN'rs.  Perhaps a PSN =
Junior listserver might be in order    ;-)

Thanks,
Kay Wyatt
