Hello,

I need to communicate with the USRP  and receive data like these :

2015-06-02 02:32:29.246055 center_freq 1000775000.0 freq 1000718750.0
power_db 5.59449106566 noise_floor_db -121.702764103
2015-06-02 02:32:29.246138 center_freq 1000775000.0 freq 1000725000.0
power_db 5.80020853614 noise_floor_db -121.702764103
2015-06-02 02:32:29.246236 center_freq 1000775000.0 freq 1000731250.0
power_db 6.41043187666 noise_floor_db -121.702764103
2015-06-02 02:32:29.246343 center_freq 1000775000.0 freq 1000737500.0
power_db 5.72799835886 noise_floor_db -121.702764103
2015-06-02 02:32:29.246443 center_freq 1000775000.0 freq 1000743750.0
power_db 8.61943426588 noise_floor_db
