Abstract
There is currently a wide range of methods for observing the properties of solar oscillations. It is generally true, however, that the means used to analyze the data are just as important to the final result as the instrumentation. I discuss first the instrumental techniques used to observe solar p-modes, with attention given both to low- and no-resolution systems, and to systems with spatial resolution. Then I describe the reduction techniques that are used to convert the raw observations into useful form.
