Hi Stephan, some prelims first: Can you manually sync the devices using set_time_unknown_pps() before running the flow graph? I would like to rule out VITA time issues. Also, your way of setting the time should work; it's the same code as if you were using tx_time tags. Although, that's something

Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] U32 type for module output

The idea of the u8 data type is that it does a raw dump of the data. So if you receive it, then cast the buffer as uint32_t *, you'll get your data. On a side note, sc16 is actually a bit different. Not only do we have signed 16-bit ints, we also have to take special care with endianness and, more

I need to check the loopback flowgraph you mentioned, but the header detection should work down to very low Eb/N0 values. However, you mention a noise amplitude of 1.5. IIRC, that would yield an SNR below 0 dB, not 13 dB as you mention. Cheers, Martin On 19.12.2015 17:41, Mateusz wrote: > Hello
