Abstract
In this, the first of a pair of linked papers, we discuss the methods used to convert raw data from the BiSON network of resonant-scattering spectrometers to velocity residuals, from which the low-degree, five- minute solar oscillations are studied. We describe our standard calibr ation and some alternative methods. The rejection of bad data, and the corrections applied for unwanted low-frequency effects, are also disc ussed.
