Hi Nicolas,

Thanks for the response. I have already posted my question to the
USRP-users list.

I am using the clock reference only from the GPSDO mounted on each of the
B210s. I am not exporting the time reference from one device to the other.

We have been testing communication links between GPS disciplined B210s and
N210s, each on it's own GPSD0 mounted clock, as well as between B210s with
their own GPSD0 mounted clock and N210s that receive an external REF and
PPS from a GPS-disciplined octoclock.

We observed the same thing. LED indicators on all devices show that the
clock reference locks but constellations keep rotating. Should we address
the residual CFO or is there something wrong with the hardware?

Thanks,
George
