SHORT HISTORY
This station was a replacement for an earlier station in an unsatisfactory tunnel. It was placed as near as possible in a
line from the Nevada Test Site to the AFTAC station at Kanab, Utah (KN-Ur).
This station is part of a net surrounding the Nevada Test Site. It is used for recording scheduled explosions and does
not operate all the time. It is controlled remotely from the test site and is sometimes recorded by the USGS in Las Vegas.
Data are not available to the public.
