On the Evans Shot, ten instruments were installed to measure the (free field) ground shock parameters of the seismic wave resulting from a contained nuclear explosion in tuff material with a predicted yield equivalent to 8 kt of TNT. The energy yield resulting in the Evans Shot was so much less than the expected yield that the amplitude of all records were to small to be of value.
