Uhm, so it’s a little bit confusing. Another strange problem is that if i put a 0.64 value of interpolation, and my flow graph is a file souce->fractional interpolator->file sink, and my source file is 1GB of data, i’m expecting a 1GB*1/0.64 output filesize. But when i run the graph i get a 800M

Also in benchmark_tx.py I noticed that calling "-m qpsk" and "-m bpsk" still default to their differential versions unless I explicitly use the "--non-differential" switch. Was this intended? I assumed that specifying "*psk" vs. "d*psk" would do the right thing. Thanks, Sean P.S. - Thank you f
