Hi SAC users, I am writing a simple script to remove the instrument response by using SAC (Version 101.2). When I was testing the SAC's transfer command, I got this message: SAC> r 2006.319.11.18.29.3500.KN.ULHL..BHZ.R.SAC SAC> transfer from evalresp Extracting evresp response for ULHL, BHZ... Station (ULHL ), Channel (BHZ ) Waveform multiplied by 1.000000 after deconvolution. The SCALE field is properly set in the SAC header, but for some reason the waveform is multipl… [more]

Hi I would like to use the type evalresp to compute the signal corrected from the instrumental response (files provided by rdseed). What is the IDEP value which should be insered in the header to say that I have raw data? Presently in my data IDEP is not defined I have accelerometric data. What is the result on accelerometric data of the command transfer from evalresp to none What is the result of transfer from evalresp to acc the amplitudes are different (even after removing the high fr… [more]

Dear All, I am writing an instrument response correction script. I set stations' name and event seperately. It works for "read" in SAC, but not for trans polezero. Any suggestion on this one? Thank your for your time and effort. -- set STA = "GAC" set EVENT = "200411150906" set YYYY = "2004" set DISN = `cat stadis | grep $STA | awk '{ print $4 }'` set STANUM = `cat stadis | grep $STA | awk '{ print $2}'` /bin/cp 20*.$STA..BHZ.D.SAC D$DISN.$STANUM.$STA.Z if (-e D$DISN.$STANUM.$STA.Z ) then… [more]

Hello SAC users, I have a dataset from a station that was NOT placed perfectly level - e.g. the sensor was placed on a ledge that had a little bit of tilt, such that Z is not perfectly up/down, and N + E have some down or upward component in the data. I'm now trying to analyze that data, but have yet to find a good definition of cmpinc in the manual (all it says is "Component incident angle (degrees from vertical)"). CMPINC has no inherent orientation (like CMPAZ, from north, and look… [more]
