OK, I have a weird problem.  I have a block I wrote a couple of months ago that doesn't seem to be working anymore.  I don't think I've updated anything within uhd-fpga except for some patches that Jonathon sent me so that I could add the logic in that keeps blocks from blasting data before the axi interface is setup.

My block is a dataGenerator, basically the same as your siggen, but it uses a .coe data file for its generated data.  What I've noticed is that when I run your bitfile that you ship, that siggen works fine.  When I run my bitfile, siggen no longer outputs anything to my specAn.  When I try my block and look at it on chipscope, it isn't outputting anything out until I set the "enable" checkbox (like siggen), so that is good.  When I click "enable," I see the data passing through my block as it should, but I don't see anything on the specAn, I also don't see the red LED light up to show that I am transmitting anything on the X310.

If I look at my block going into a fileSink instead of the radio, it starts blasting data immediately (I think that is a QT issue because your siggen does that as well), but it looks bit perfect.

What bothers me is:
1) Why does the transmit LED not light up when my block is in play?
and
2) Even in this crappy state, if I use the nocblocks for some other purpose that doesn't involve the radio (like looking at a freqSink), everything looks good.....  Why would that be?

Those two thing lead me to believe that something is happening to my radio on start, but I am not sure what or why.  Has anyone seen this before?  If not, any idea of things I can debug, or gotchays that might cause the radio to act up?  I'm pulling my hair out on this one.....
