Hello All,
I finally think I have clearly recorded a reflected wave front. It
happened this morning from the Honshu Quake where the P and pP wave
fronts seem to be clearly recorded. My recording can be found at
http://www.seismicnet.com/cgi-dos/makegif.exe?/quakes/1003/100313.125644.ebgzx.psn.
If I recorded the pP wave previously, I certainly did not recognize it.
If I read the reference at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seismic_wave
correctly, the pP wave can only be recorded at surface
arrival/reflection points so station location is critical to visibility.
Just the luck of the draw.
Roger
