%      Ways to call...
%      s = SPECTRALOBJECT() creates a spectralobject from scratch
%      s = SPECTRALOBJECT(spectralobject) clones a spectralobject
%      s = SPECTRALOBJECT(nfft, overlap, freqmax, dBlims)
%            manually puts together a spectralobject object
% 
%      SPECTRALOBJECT - an existing spectral object
%      NFFT - Fourier transform window               (default [1024])
%      OVERLAP - how much of the window to overlap   (default [NFFT * 0.8])
%      FREQMAX - how high a freq to display          (default [8])
%      DBLIMS - dB range over which to display data  (default [50 100])
%      SCALING - 's', 'm', 'h', 'date': x axis scale (default 's' (second))
%      to get default value, use []
