Note that most geophones already have significant internal damping. Consult
the data sheet and use only enough shunt damping to make up the difference
between 0.707 and the internal damping coefficient.

Is anyone able to comment on this expression=
to get a value for the damping resistor ?
Rd =3D (Rg/(sqrt(2) - 1))
So like if Rg =3D 438 Then
Rd =3D 1058
and this means
Ge =3D G * Rd/(Rd + Rg)
And, So that
G =3D 2.99 V/(in/sec)
Ge - 2.114 V/(in/sec)
For Winquake this becomes
2.114/2.54 =3D 0.83228 V/(cm/sec)
Would this be the value for the sensor in
Winquake and Winsdr ?
I'm just trying to get meaningful numbers for these programs.

geoff
