The actual code for setting frequency and gain (for daughterboard dbs_rx) is found (in python!) in file <source code of gnuradio>/gr-usrp/src/db_dbs_rx.py (methods set_freq and set_gain). The procedure is quite abstruse and I found no text document that would explain in a less terse format what was done and why. I re-coded the process in C for a library to be called from Ruby, but I have no certainty that the logic is correct. If you want I can send you the code, but it has possibly less documentation that the original python code (which is, I admit, quite an achievement), and since I could not understand exactly what the procedure was performing, I have no way to ascertain that my code is correct.
