Hi Folks, This morning's monitor indicated a large signature.  At first 
glance it looked like one event followed by two more.

I saw a report of the 4.2M Western Montana, but when I processed it, the 
time indicated matched only the last part of the trace.  See image one 
showing all three sensors.
It's very clear on the bottom trace, a Slinky II machine CH3,  which is a 
vertical spring sensor.

The P and S show the MONTANA earthquake.  For more details, see 
09306.105022.tcidch3.gif.

Later I found the other parts of the trace were from a 6.4M NORTH OF 
SVALBARD near Greenland.  (See 090306.105022.tcidch1.gif).

Makes me wonder if the Svalbard earthquake , encouraged the Montana 
earthquake as it shook things up, as it passed through?

Ted
