The European VLF/LF Radio Network to Search for Earthquake Precursors

The radio data, VLF/LF bands, were collected by receivers located on the ground. The ground-based research implies systematic data collection by a network of receivers in Europe. During 2008 a radio receiver was developed by the Italian factory Elettronika (Palo del Colle, Bari). An international project network consisting of five receivers for sampling LF and VLF radio signals has been going on to record the data in Europe from different transmission stations around the World. One of them was established in Resadiye, Turkey, located just on the North Anatolian Fault Zone. The receiver works in VLF and LF bands monitoring ten frequencies with one minute sampling interval.
