Ok, this is a little much python parsing to do it in my head. Have you verified that len(<your range concatenation>) is actually correct? For my python interpreter, it's 117, not 128, just like the error said. > Third , I tried my parameters in loopback example & I got no error , but I > want to try tx_ofdm.grc with my parameters & put file sink after each block > to understand , but I got an error in tx_ofdm.grc .

You'll have to figure this one out yourself. > Thanks is advance No problem! However, I feel that you tend to ask questions that, with a little more investigative vigor, you would have answered yourself, so maybe it would pay to work a little more thoroughly before mailing the list. That being said, whenever you're stuck, feel absolutely free and encouraged to ask!
