Abstract
A method and apparatus for increasing the effective bandwidth of an acoustic return resulting from logging operations. The real time acoustic return is stored in memory. A transmitted acoustic return is produced for transmitting over a logging cable by transmitting the acoustic return out of the memory and onto the cable at a rate which is slower than real time.
