Thanks for taking the time for me. I didn't know. Because of the shallowness 
of the focus and the closeness of your recording site, I "expected" P and S 
to have a more similar amplitude.....I am not taking about my 
recordings....it did surprise me that the Lehmans at my location seemed to 
be noisey in the P to PcS arrival time frame. And since I am taking up your 
time, another question, does the AS-1 show any directional 
sensitivity....maybe as the result of improper setup?
