Happy New Year, Folks.

When I receive an earthquake, the earth and my house are moved by the =
event.  The various phases moves the ground in different direction.
This question has to do with the movement of the earth like that of a =
teeter-totter.  Tilt. like that measured by a level.

1.  How much does the earth move?  I do understand the earth would move =
in many different directions, and move more, if the earthquake was =
larger, and or closer.
But somewhere I think I read some numbers indicating how much the earth =
would be expected to move.

I am asking this question, to help me understand, the approximate tilt =
from an earthquake.   If I hung a one meter pendulum, and a major =
earthquake occurred 1000km away, the earth here, would tilt.  If I were =
looking at the pendulum at the moment the S wave arrived, assuming the =
sensor was pointing in the correct direction, the pendulum would appear =
to tilt, but unless the event was large enough I could not see it with =
my eyes.
If the event was large, I would be able to see it with my eyes.

I saw the earth move during an earthquake 1993?   I was at my kitchen =
window felt or hear something, maybe the P,looked up, and maybe 4 =
seconds later, I felt a wave, one up and one down.  As I was looking =
outside at the time I saw the wave move down the street.   If I believed =
my eyes.  This wave was not 12", but it must have been more than 2".

Anyhow I think you get the idea.

2. Completely different question:  I would like to correspond with =
someone who has used both AmaSeis and WinSDR.   I know AmaSeis, but =
would like to get some pointers on setting up WinSDR. =20
