This has never been clear to me! What about the phase ambiguity due to the fractional-N VCO's, as Marcus has mentioned? This has to be calibrated out, yes/no?, but how?, unless after a retune you then TX a calibration sequence that you can correlate against and correct. But after this, then,

You may have done this already, but check that the network port is eth0, which find_usrp's uses by default. I had similar problem after inserting another network card, check /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules... D. - Original Message From: Marcus D. Leech To: discuss-gnuradi

Thanks John, This is how I understood it, but I suppose my real question is (not being a dsp expert), why would you want to do this? I assumed that being a 26MHz clock, this would be ideal for GSM rate signals? Cheers, Dave - Original Message From: John Orlando To: David Evans

[Discuss-gnuradio] BURX 26MHz clock

2010-08-19 Thread David Evans
Hi, Probably a stupid question... By connecting the BURX's 26MHz clock to the USRP2's 100MHz ref. input, as described in the source, does this pull the mainboard clock to 26MHz, or does it just phase lock to it? i.e. if I collect samples with usrp2_rx_cfile, these will all be samples at 26MHz
