Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Did any of you guys in who live in Adelaide, feel that earth tremor about 20 minutes ago??

It felt a someone was playing a 10Hz sine wave through a very large subwoofer under our house!!

Looks like it wasn't just my imagination:

It was magnitude 3.8 and centered on Mt Barker!

Yes i did feel it to.

It felt like a big rush of wind through the house but i looked over to the aneometer and is said 4kph.

So considered it was the first earth moving experiance ive had for a while.

And no Bob it was not me tinkering with the flux capacitor that caused it.

AB - can you turn your sub woofers down.

Where i live is about a KM from a double fault line that crosses top of the hill and it is constantly stuffing the road up as it crosses over it. This shows there is a lot more movement there then we realize.

Hi Pete

Thought you may have been sourcing some geothermal energy to power the pichandles.

All the best

Bob
