Thanks for trying, Martin.

My OFDM Specs are:

FFT size = 64
CP length = 16
bandwidth = 2KHz
carrier freq: centered around 2.437GHz

It is easier to reproduce if I replace the noise block with one that adds
CFO errors.

a) Increase this CFO error until header CRCs fail. Let this stand for a few
seconds.
b) Reduce CFO offset errors to 0.
c) Go to step a and repeat a few times.

I observe that after doing this a few times, the RX path freezes up.

In any case, thank you very much for trying to reproduce this error. I
really appreciate your help. :)

best regards,
aditya
