Hi Ian,

There are three types of earthquakes. Normal high frequancy events that
happen when the crust breaks. We usally get those all the time. Then
there are the volcano type of earthquakes, that happen just before a
volcano starts a eruption, here is a good sample of such earthquake that
I did record last weekend. This trance is filtered at 2Hz,

Then there is the harmonic tremor that can be seen when magma is pushing
up trugh the crust in a eruption. I have never seen those, but those how
are living near a activie volcano that is erupting should see all the
time. I don't know how well 4.5Hz geophone can pickup such tremors. But
I do know that I am going to get a answer to that question soon.
