Ahh-- my mistake, I was assuming the "dips" were something like one
symbol, the other being the continous wave with the 400u amplitude, and
completely missed the differences in period on the non-dippy signal...
The lower halfwaves of the lower-frequency oscillations look a little
strange; maybe this signal was generated by RC-lowpassing a PWM signal?
