Hi All,

For all of those the might consider using Earthworm our earthworm ID is  
INST_PSN and we have worldwide network code of AM


The standard trace name are SCNL which stands for Station Channel 
Network Location

the station name is up to five characters and can not start with a number.

BRU2 is the name of my main site.  The station name is really a site, it 
has cooridantes and can not abe moved without changing the name

The C has a bunch of rules that govern the names but is always three letter

HHZ

The network name for all amatuers of the PSN group is AM, this was 
assigned to us by the FDSN, federation of digital seismic stations

AM

and the location is two characters and 00 is a good choice.  So the 
vertical channel of my station is

BRU2 HHZ PA 00

I can have any number of sensors at the same site and their channel 
names can be unique

BRU2 SHZ AM 00

So BRU2 has many many sensors all with unique names.

I can help anyone who is interested in setting up an EW.

Regards,

Angel
