Hello James: The bandwidth of the "Noise Source" block is 2pi. It's a digital signal, so the bandwidth is not in MHz, and is in range of [0, 2pi] or [0, 1] (if you normalized it).
You can calculate an equivalent analog bandwidth if you know the sampling rate of hardware sink block that is being used (ex: UHD sink, Osmocom Sink, etc). If the sampling rate is set to 4 MS/s and if a Noise Source block is connected to the hardware sink directly, then the bandwidth of the outputted noise should be (ideally) 4 MHz. If you use a resampler to interpolate the signal, it will go down. Alternatively, you can also use a low-pass filter to reduce the bandwidth (forgot to mention this in the previous e-mail, but it is probably faster and acceptible in this case).

The quality of your "white noise" will depend on the resampler and the transmitter hardware, though.
