Hi John, I was choice in my words by saying harmonic rich....
Whats misleading is describing a time domain event on a SA as harmonic. 90% of the folks I talk to do not comprehend that the line on the emissions plot represents the instant an event occurs and not a discrete frequency that could be remeasured at that point. Cheers, Derek.
