[Discuss-gnuradio] switching between signal and reference source

I'm buliding a system that switches the RF input, several times per second, between the actual signal, and a stable reference source. On a USRP2, what kind of latency is there between the antenna input, and data arriving at the head of the signal processing chain? Small errors at the 'edge' o
