Hi All,
The recent activity in the Jujuy and Antofagasta areas prompted me to =
try and determine a better estimate of the MI MS correction. I had =
several quakes from about the same area ranging from 5.8 to over 7.7 all =
within several weeks and all relatively south of my north south sensor. =
As I tried to enter the correction to match published magnitudes I got =
numbers from .00025 down to .00006 to make the various magnitudes match. =
What type of accuracy should I expect on magnitude using a correction =
like this? I used unfiltered data. Should I use a specific filter to =
get a more standard read?
