Jens, I used a complete ad-hoc method for automatic frequency estimation: tracing the minimum ratio of the power of DC over the total power of the remaining channels, averaged over all symbols in a frame. Your estimate seems quite good! I atatch the .m file I have not tried anything with the

Modifications to the FM stereo receiver have been underway for two days. Nothing that changes the way things work inside the FM stereo receiver were included in the tar balls. However a change that could change the way you use gr_pll_carriertracking has been submitted and was in the tar ball.

Jens, I looked at your code and I don't know if this makes a difference, but I think the line data = d_resamp(256:1792) should be substituted by data = d_resamp(257:1793) since in an N=2m point FFT the DC is the m+1-st component after fftshift (in our case it is the 1025-th component). I still b

I have to say that I am not going to be a good guy to test for efficiency. This dual G5 is a lightning bolt. I told fftwf-wisdom to run for 1/4 hour. It has already completed the 2^17 and was in the 2^18's before it stopped and moved on to fftw-wisdom. Blistering fast. I look forward to th

Further more this means that the demodulated symbol (differences!) should always have phase 0, pi/4, 2pi/4, 3pi/4 (plus a *constant* offset of pi/8). But this offset is varying. Am I right? And why should the transmitter introduce a varying offset? The problem is somewhere in the demodulation ch
