Description

In working with some mseed files which have 6000.0 Hz sampling rates I noticed the sampling_period in the index is set at 0.000166 rather than using the full nanosecond precision of 0.000166666. Even though 6k Hz cannot be represented exactly as a sampling period, it should at least use the full ns precision allotted.
