At the receiver side, the received signal is first processed by SBX daughtercard before being sent it to the host (which is the PC). The IQ demodulation is performed at the receiving SBX, not at the host. In this case the clocking of SBX must be synchronized to the received IQ-modulated signal. Hence the PLL must be done precisely in the SBX, not in the host, correct? If the PLL is done at the gnuradio flow graph, then this flow graph must be able to adjust the local oscillator of the SBX daughtercard, via softare. Does gnuradio flow graph have this capability?
