Fetch realtime data in 5620

hi

I have a problem in using the 5620 digitizer to fetch real time data

We have a project to demodulate GPS signal  wich center frequency at 1.57542GHz and bandwidth 2MHz.
In first step, I used " ni5660 fetch IQ data.vi" by modify the bandwidth to be 2MHz and fetched about 0.2 second data. I succesfully demodulated the GPS signal. 

But I found with this vi, I can not get longer time, for example, 60seconds data.  So I used the "nituner getting started.vi" to mannually downconverte the signal to IF and "use niScope EX Stream to Disk.vi" to fetch the data to disk.  Now the niTunner: frequency shift 1.561GHz.
So, the IF frequency is 1.57542GHz-1.561GHz=14.42MHz. Then I set the digitizer frequency to 6.4M/s which means that the the signal  is aliased to 14.42MHz-6.4MHz*2=1.62MHz.  With the signal bandwidth 2MHz. Now the aliased signal is from 1.62MHz-1MHz to 1.62MHz+1MHz.  But now, I can not demodulate this signal !!!

Could anybody help me about this?

Thanks
