The WBX can put out about 20dBm at 520 MHz. -55dBm would be 75dB below the desired signal, which is quite a good amount of LO suppression. If you need more, you'll need to actively calibrate the DC offset to null it out.

When the transmitter is disabled, the tone is not present. This can be seen below, where I'm transmitting a stream of complex(0,0), yet it still transmits this tone in at the center (520MHz): spectrum.jpg Has anyone experienced this before with the WBX board? I've confirmed it's only my WBX board by using the same USRP2 board and trying my RFX2400 and XCVR2450 with the same transmit script and sample stream and neither see this problem. I am using the latest USRP2 firmware that includes the WBX support, and the newest GR git. It's possible that the board is defective in some way... but I thought I'd punt it to the list to see if anyone else has seen the issue. - George _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org <mailto:Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org> http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
