John,
It's interesting that there is almost no evidence of the 500 MHz ADC clock,
except perhaps the 2000 MHz tone. I guess that means the ADC clock
transmission lines are well terminated and not radiating. Most of the lines
look like they are related to the PPC (multiples of 33 MHz) and the 100 MHz
system clock.
