Last week I received a work unit that took my G4/466 only 29 minutes to process and looked like a real signal with equally spaced pulses of equal height and no noise between them. Is this some kind of test send by the server? Has anyone else had this happen to them?

This happens from time to time davidflas. The signal is ridden with Radio Interference, so the client stops processing it and grabs another WU. You Get credit, and a killer time for that WU, but that is the only reason that i've heard WUs getting cut short.
