Hi,
    Bits/symbol depends on modulation scheme that you use to transmit.  For
BPSK, it is 1 bit/symbol, for QPSK it is 2 bit/symbol and for 64-QAM it is
6 bits/symbol. So you can set it according to modulation scheme you use.

Samples/symbol is normally default set to 2. I am not aware in gnuradio but
in certain other implementations samples/symbol is kept greater than 2, say
4 or 8 to account for pulse shaping.
