Not quite; what does it look like on a 'scope? Can you display the pulse
from perhaps, an IF output? Even simpler, try connecting a 'scope
directly to the antenna; you may or may not need a broad band preamp
ahead of it.
It is quite often useful to know what interference looks like not on a
waterfall or even a spectrum analyzer, but at the scale of its pulse
length, perhaps 2, 5 or 10 msec per division.
