[Kell, Scott] 
To illustrate what I'm talking about, I set the USRP as follows:
Data rate: 500 kSamples/sec, 
Center frequency: 1250 kHz

I put a 9dBm tone in at 50 kHz and measured the largest alias in my
"passband".  I then did the same at 100 kHz, 150 kHz, 200 kHz, ... 32
MHz.  I then plotted this "response". [3] It just doesn't seem to be as
good as what I thought it would be.  [4]

Any ideas?    

Thanks!
