Hi Chris. I did a quick search starting with quakes M>5.0 and larger in 1978. The solar flare was an X15 on 11/07/78. There was a quake of 7.0Ms, but as you can see it occurred before the solar flare. The list is much longer, but the bandwidth would just about bankrupt Canie. There were 10,000 quakes of M>5.0 and larger from 1978 to 1984. As you can see there were a number of M>5.0 quakes in a 7 day period, but the only quake to have occurred that was larger then M>5.0 was the aftershock of M>6.1 on 1978/11/07.

When I checked the ANSS catalog there was no end to M>5.0 quakes. I could use quakes of M>7.0 and larger, but not sure how representive that would be. Any suggestions would be helpful. Take Care…Don in creepy town
