OBSERVATION ONLY;
Not a crticism.
Capabilities and Limitations of any amateur.

It seems unlikely to me that an amatur has the
abilities to build scientific equipment with the
abilities to properly recreate the actual ground motion.

There are phase relationships involved that are\very difficult to
properly record after passing through complex filter circuits.

The best we can hope to achieve are things like
first time of arrival and relative energy content.

But the faithful recreation of ground motion
seems almost impossible to me based upon personal
experiences.

Heck, Im just happy to be able
to know this wave is passing under and through me
right about now.
