Hello, Months ago I bought a USRP. Nice piece of Hardware but I did not really dive into GNURadio until this weekend. Still learning about it. I am also busy maintaining software that decodes Trunked Radio Control Channels and LTR variants like NTS Passport. I am a Boston area Ham and member o

Hi Eric, I get it now, 64/4 Msps = 16 Msps = 32MBps ==> each sample has to be 2 bytes i.e. 8 bit I&Q. Can we make usrp_spectrum_sense.py to run with 8 bit I&Q instead of 16 bit I&Q? I mean, If I want to be able to observe a chunk of 16Mhz at once (if possible, even more), is there something I c

Hello everyone, My understanding is that the decimation value for the fpga has to be between [4, 256]. In usrp_spectrum_sense.py, when I set the decimation values to 16 or 8 (spanning 4Mhz and 8Mhz chunk at once), then m.data[0] ...m.data[255] print out fine. However, when I set the decimation to

Hi Jonathan, Just to be sure, I checked out a new version and followed the steps again. It works!! The Makefile points to the correct swig. May be the problem was not doing a distclean. Thanks so much! Shravan On 12/3/06, Johnathan Corgan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: On Sun, 2006-12-03 at 02:11
