The way you have it set up is compare the incoming bit to 1, next compare the incoming bit to 0. And it will alternately compare incoming bits between 1 and 0. This BER block will probably not be useful if you don't have access (within this flowgraph) to the source generating data.

If you haven't looked at examples yet you should do that too. They are probably located in /usr/local/share/gnuradio/examples/ There's a BER example at /usr/local/share/gnuradio/examples/digital/demod/ber_simulation.grc > > Good Luck! > > Brian > _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
