Hi Audun,

       You don't say what seismometer you are using? I would be inclined to 
pack up and take my seismometer on holiday at that time. I regard 120 tons of 
HE at 2 km as far too close for comfort for either of us. 

       Regards,

I've just learned that during e=
aster our harbour will be opened up with explsives, 2km from where I live (S=
tavanger/Norway). They will be using 120metric tonnes of explosives. 

Does anybody have an idea if this could be used as a benchmark for my

seismometer in regards to get a usable calibration? I'm thinking down

the road of Velocity/Accelleration/Displacement?
