Jan - UHD supports calibration of all WBX boards. The issue is that when you bought your WBX, we weren't burning serial numbers into that daughterboard. The calibration routine requires a serial number, because it uses it to save / identify the calibration data.
All you need to do is burn a serial into your daughterboard. UHD builds a utility called 'usrp_burn_db_eeprom' (host/build/utils), which you can use to set the serial of your daughterboard: ./usrp_burn_db_eeprom --unit=TX --ser=<serial> ./usrp_burn_db_eeprom --unit=RX --ser=<serial> The serial you set can be any 9-digit ASCII string. After you write new serials into your daughterboards, try the calibration again, and it should work fine.
