Tom, Thanks for the quick bug fix Re: the number sinks. In the interim I've been troubleshooting by dumping output to a binary file and discovered other mistakes on my part. But once again I'm at an impasse. I captured some data which I view in the terminal using xxd -b filename.
The interesting thing is that the first portion of the file is all 1's "1111 1111 1111", which is the correct output that I'm looking for. However, it transitions to outputting "0101 0101 0101" and stays with that output apparently indefinitely. Could this in some way be caused by the Polyphase Clock Sync?
