I would like to see this schematic that Don mentions; I look at ettus.com but all I could find is the 1-page basic description of the daughterboard. Is there something more detailed that shows the layout of the 8132 as well as the ADC? thanks, eric p.s.- the USRP performed beautifully for my

gnuradio.org appears to be down. Where can I find that flag, and how do I disable it? However, my surmise of the last post seems to be correct. When I substitute a regular Basic RX for the LF RX unit, the upwards shift goes away. This is I'm guessing because, as I hinted to in my previous p
