If I'm reading this correct David are you expecting an RF waveform at the output, if so your not going to get one.
Lawrence. [EDIT: Whoops....Keith beat me to it, as he says, the waveforms look about right, the DC shift looks about right also taking into account the forward voltage drop of the detector, when you rig it up to to a receiver with a swept frequency input from your sweep generator don't connect the probe to the detector output of the receiver.]
