Operation of a telemetered seismic network on the Alaska Peninsula

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5246533

A large aperture network of 10 short-period seismometers is being operated on the Alaska Peninsula for the primary purpose of permitting data acquisition in a region of seismic gap. Signals from the stations are transmitted via VHF radio links and telephone lines to a central recording site at Homer. Since February 1976 the net has operated sufficiently reliably to provide a record of the seismicity in the region of the net. Technical improvements in recent months have substantially improved the overall reliability of the system.
