Hi Roderick,
I may have promised to add a description for using QGIS to the manual
during the Seisan workshop last week, so here is an answer that
hopefully solves your problem and may also help others:
1. use gmap to create a kml file from your nordic formatted catalog.
2. In QGIS, use LAYER > ADD LAYER > ADD VECTOR LAYER > ADD > Select All > OK
3. If you want to see any details on an event that is then displayed in
a map, you can use the "Identify Feature" command from the top toolbar
to click on an event (make sure the layer for the events is selected);
or you can add the description (e.g., "5.6 MB 1976-01-18_4:46:47.0") as
a label to each event.
You can also load the gmap.cur.kml file into QGis like this, and that
will display the event, raypaths, and stations like in Google Earth. If
you use this while you are locating an event, you will have to click the
"Refresh" button (F5) in Qgis each time you want to reload the location
- I haven't yet found a way to do this automatically like in Google Earth.
Cheers,
Felix

Is there any way to convert a Nordic format hypocentre list into a
format that can be read by a GIS?
I’m using QGIS.
