There should have been 2048 samples between. If there is not, I made a
mistake and will do the file again. We definitely need the equalizer.

In our military system tests we acquire 10-20 impulses and sum them

then it will stay in. This was what the generals all wanted. In our
seismic stuff, where the geophysicists seem to think it is needed to
find oil, we require the < 1 dB flatness in the frequency domain
plateau of a single impulse.
Another possible problem is that the data before and after the
impulse must be un-modified by another impulse coming along for at
least the time to get thru the last fir filter stage in the sigma-
delta converters. This takes 29 samples in our seismic converters.
At that point the response should have dropped to zero, of course,
but any analog stuff may still be banging about. I usually play it
safe and isolate a single impulse in 1024 samples. I did not
measured the time between the individual pulses in your data.

anyone else wants to see it.

There is enough there to tell me that we should have done the block
equalizer a long time ago. I did not know about the ripple and the
delay elements they imply.

Looks pretty flat. Seismic stuff is spec'ed at 1 db flatness. Analysis
of a single of your impulses. I guess you'll need to sum a bunch.

We have an impulse generator on the RFE. And we have (currently hidden)
code to generate a train of pulses. I generated several ten long pulse
trains with the RFE impulse generator and made a wave file.
The large pop at the end of the file is me disengaging the impulse
relay.
