Hi all,

Theres a article on Randall Peters "Volksmeter" seismometer at:

http://www.eetimes.com/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=175801455

It does go into some details of the instrument. Its essentially

a "hanging pendulum" with very low pivot friction and much higher

inherent stability and alot less tilt adjustment/s than "~probably all"

older design horizontal sensing seismometers.
