Thanks. Just glancing at usrp_siggen.py, things look less abstract than they did at the the beginning of the summer. I'll start playing around with it right now. As for the output, is there no other way to catch the final outpuf than with a sprectrum analyzer or oscilloscope? For example, could I possibly directly connect one board to another with an SMA cable and run an oscilloscope block at the receiver, if there is such a block?

The upconversion from complex baseband to the specified RF frequency
takes place in the USRP (actually a combination of the FPGA, AD9862 and
RF daughterboard).

I suggest you start by hooking up an oscilloscope or spectrum analyzer
to the output of whatever daughterboard you're using, and take a look at
the RF output with that.

Try usrp_siggen.py with a variety of options to begin to understand
what's going on.
