Gang - Here's a couple of Blender dataset animations that demonstrate the bandlimiting effect of root-raised-cosine filter on pulses. They're about 2mb each. The first one is an unfiltered pulse with varying duty-cycle just to make things wiggle: http://webpages.charter.net/cswiger/pulse_fft.avi

Dear all, I guess I should have spent more time experimenting and studying the examples before asking these questions. In any case, I have resolved both issues: As it turns out the ADC's (I guess due to some hardware mismathces etc) may add a DC term at the output. This offset can be eliminated e
