Eliminating Aliases
To eliminate aliases, try the following remedies:
H Turn the SEC/DIV knob to set the sample rate to a faster setting.
Since you increase the Nyquist freque ncy as you increase the
sample rate, t he aliased frequency components should appear at
their proper frequency. If too m any frequency components are
shown on the screen, you can use the FFT Zoom option to
magnify the FFT spectrum.
