Hi Marcus,

Thanks. The daughter boards I am using are WBXs.

I can understand how to use multiply-const block to change the amplitude of
the received signal, but what does the first method mean?

Does it mean to set the parameter in help message "- - gain arg       gain
for the RF chain"  or on hardware level? I did not see any button on
motherboard or daughterboard for adjusting RF gain.

Regards,

Jamie
