SWNN[ABCDEFGIJK] all 100Hz HHZ channels had inverted polarity. 250 Hz CHZ channels OK. Horizontal channels OK.
This had been fixed previously but seemed to have been reverted sometime in 2025.
Recommended re-download of this data to be sure.

MAY 2026
- Network YB (Boorowa/Rugby; restricted) online
- new station M8.RUGBY (Rugby, NSW) added
MAR 2026
- Networks 2X, 3X, 6D, and 1H were aligned to magnetic north. Since rotated -6.5, -7.7, -5, -8.1 degrees (respectively) to fix.
6D.WGC* stations rotated an additional 180 degrees
- Network 1H had 24 db gain removed
JAN 2026
- Renaming IGU16R node channels from 'H' to 'P' type instruments in channel code
e.g. DHZ will be DPZ.
- Renaming BD3C-5 node channels from 'C' to 'D' (broadband to short-period) in channel code
e.g. CHZ will be DHZ. Since all of our BD3C deploys have been 250Hz, C -> D is consistent
The above node channel renames are being done gradually; restricted datasets will mostly
remain as they were.
- Nodal networks 2X (2022), 3X (2022), 6D (2022) had 24db gain removed.
