Thanks Josh, What I am looking for on the TX side of things is basically the same thing I have on the RX side. If I set the subdev spec on the basic RX to "A:A A:B" and then use usrp->set_rx_freq(uhd::tune_request_t(freq)) for each channel, I get two separate rx channels, both with their own IQ pairs. On the TX side I only manage to have one IQ pair, as in I through TX_A and Q through TX_B. We were trying for a 4 channel transmit on 2 USRPs, so that they could all be connected by s MIMO cable. One more question, when you say "too complicated to be worth it", generally, what kind of modification would be necessary? Thanks for your time! -Anisha
