Hi John, I've matched your configuration, with a N210 with GPSDO as master, and a N210 slave connected via a MIMO cable. I was able to create a pair of synced streams with the flowgraph attached without issue. Can you give it a try? Otherwise email us at supp...@ettus.com and we can follow up there.
