If you're using a USRP, you should be getting a timestamp. It's the second
number printed, as in the following:
(-14 *1.29258827811*) Type 0 (short A-A surveillance) from ab2984 at 3000ft

If you are using a GPSDO with your USRP, the printed time will be in UTC
seconds. Otherwise, it will be in seconds since the application started
running.
