A study was undertaken to investigate how a local seismogram records a maj or earthquake. The earthquake chosen was the one that hook Afghanistan's Hindu Kush region on the 3 of March , 2002 at 12:08:22.9 UTe. This major magnitude 7.4, intermediate depth, tremor killed about 150 people.

The data used is from the NEIC website and the FRIM stati on . Several phases were successfully identified from the local seismogram, including multiples and depth phases.
