A friend of mine built a clock that they used to time-sync a lot of those stations. It was basically a nice OCXO built into an ammunition can. They flew it to various stations around the world. One particular trip to sync the stations in the mid-east was particularly interesting... ammo cans, wires, batteries, sketchy looking electronics with counting displays, clueless security goons... lotsa fun ensued. ---------------------------- > World wide seismology took off in the early 1970s as background for nuclear > underground non-testing treaties.
