[Discuss-gnuradio] Variable phase signal generator

2009-07-28 Thread
Hi, How do I generate variable phase signals using GNU radio blocks? For example, I generate a reference Sine wave. I need another sine wave whose phase can be varied with respect to the reference sine wave. How can I do that? Thanking you, Regards, Sivaram

OSX. I got my USRP up and running, and now it isn't. In system profile it even detects USRP 4, and when I run a program, the light slows down flashing, but it doesn't seem to be reading anything. Here is my error message when I use ./usrp_fft.py /opt/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/wx-2.8-mac-u

Well, maybe that's the wrong way to phrase it. I need to make or buy an FM antenna (I realized I accidentally grabbed the VERT900 from my lab, and they don't have an FM antenna). Some sites seem to imply that coax is usually 70 ohm, but it looks like here http://wireandcable.thermaxcdt.com/item/hi

Matt, I saw your message about modifying the DBSRX to work with the USRP2 and just wanted to confirm and ask a couple of other questions. The two steps are: 1. Put the DBSRX into a USRP1 on Side A, connect to a computer and run: burn-db-eeprom -A --force -t dbsrx2 2. Remove R193 (on t
