But I see new links that I must read.

one year later in a 1.3 billion year time frame is a very small percentage ~0.0000000769 %
What do you expect to extract and delineate from a measurement in September 2016?
The signal was already very faint in September 2015 - and that signal was most likely the peak of the wave - ie one of the initial wave pulses
Unless some sort of pre-event has been measured and there is something bigger yet to reach us.?
