Sure, I understand the comment about the tagged release. And, I don't have a compelling reason why I can't switch from 3.14 to 3.15. I have not switched yet only because I'm being cautious and 3.14 has worked well for me. But, I will plan to switch - at least for now. Rob On Mon, Jan 27, 2020 a

Hi Rob, Thanks for trying your setup with 3.15.0.0. I will see what I can do about getting these fixes backported to 3.14, any changes will need to be on the UHD-3.14 branch (the maint branch for 3.14), we won't be able to apply these changes to 3.14.1.1, as it's a tagged release. Regards, Nate

Nate, After switching to 3.15, I now get consistent results such that the relative phase between channels is as follows: - chan 0 to chan 1: constant - chan 1 to chan 2: constant +/- 180 deg - chan 2 to chan 3: constant So, it seems that the problem was in 3.14. Rob On Mon, Jan 27, 2020 at 3:45 P

Nate, So, I retested with 3.14.1.1 and got erratic results (same as last week). Now I am attempting to go to 3.15.0.0. To make things as painless as possible, I tried to just re-build MPM on the device and then update the other stuff on the host (rather than flashing a new file system). However,

ok. Yes, I always use timed tune commands. If that were not happening correctly, I don't think I could get consistent results with TwinRx. I am presently using 3.14.1.1. I will complete the testing (using internal LO) I've already begun with this version and then re-test some/all using 3.15. As

Hi Rob, One other thing, if you're not on UHD v3.15.0.0, I'd recommend to update to it. There was some phase reset and accumulator fixes with 3.15.0.0. https://github.com/EttusResearch/uhd/blob/UHD-3.15.LTS/CHANGELOG#L44 Regards, Nate Temple On Mon, Jan 27, 2020 at 11:17 AM Nate Temple wrote:

Hi Rob, You should always use a tune request with a timed command when you want to align channels. One thing you could test is to try using the internal LO and see if you get different results. Also you could try using the integer N tuning mode, but I don't think it will make any difference for

Hi Nate, I changed the subject as to not further hijack the other thread. Of the 16 captures I collected, some of them included a tuning command (but using the same timed commands I use for other devices such as TwinRx). But, others did not. For example, for the first two data points below (with m
