Thank you for the response. I was afraid that might be the case :) The following workaround seems to work well (which seems to validate your hypothesis): When a packet is _not_ being sent, the transmitter outputs a continuous stream of 0-valued samples to the USRP. When a packet _is_ bein

So from what I understand, a daemon has been suggested for inband packet encoding and decoding that is implemented as an m-block which can be connected in a flow graph for the encoding/decoding and interfacing with the USRP. Is this correct? The goal would be the only have 1 of these running,
