I'm not sure I follow that.  How will you change your sample rate?  BTW, 
unless I don't understand the why the ADC works, every time you read the 
ADC it stops the counter for a short time.  Be aware of this as it may 
have an impact on your measurements if not accounted for.

I still don't see how the GA144 ADC is any different for this than any 
other ADC.

Anti-aliasing is used to prevent signals above the Nyquist rate (1/2 
your sample rate) from affecting your measurement of baseband signals. 
If you aren't sampling in the conventional sense, there is no need to 
anti-alias.  But then I'm not clear what you *are* doing so I can't say 
for sure.
