Hi Steve,

  I looked at it, but I need to know more about its spectral response before
I can properly inverse filter it.

Subject: Inverse filtering=20 example

=A0 I use inverse filtering to restore=20 long-period response to my medium period sensors. On major events, even= =20 geophones can be transformed into long-period sensors.

=A0 For=20 example, I downloaded the following files:

110311.= 054500.sobe.psn=20 Mw8.9 8750km from Sonderborg, Denmark, Near East Coast of Eastern Honshu,= =20 Japan (GIF=20 Image)
110311.054500.sobn.psn=20 Mw8.9 8750km from Sonderborg, Denmark, Near East Coast of Eastern Honshu,= =20 Japan (GIF=20 Image)
110311.054500.sobz.psn=20 Mw8.9 8750km from Sonderborg, Denmark, Near East Coast of Eastern Honshu,= =20 Japan (GIF=20 Image)

=A0 I inverse filtered from the original period of 0.22= =20 seconds to 20 seconds and posted the following volume file:

110311.055500.sobx.psn=20 * M8.9 8750km from Sonderborg, Denmark [Inverse Filtered], Near East Coas= t of=20 Eastern Honshu, Japan (GIF=20 Image)

which can be looked at or downloaded from http://www.sei= smicnet.com/cgi-dos/event.exe

=A0=20 If you integrate the data, you get peak displacements in the 3 to 4 mm ra= nge,=20 which seems about right.

=A0 My inverse filter utility program,=20 WQFilter.exe, can be downloaded from http://sites.google.com/site/bobmcclure= 90
