Another thought I had -- because I don't anticipate my waveform changing much, is there a way to pre-record my waveform and transmit it continuously, which if I understand the problem correctly would avoid the underruns?

Sure, just record it in a file-sink, and then play it back from a file-source.

    Hi Marcus,

    I switched to performance mode and got the same results. I'm
    running LDXE on this computer, so I changed it by editing
    /etc/init.d/cpufrequtils and setting GOVERNOR="performance", then
    using sysv-rc-conf to deactivate on-demand.

        otw_format=sc12 and setting the frame size higher, but I
        haven't had any success.
        Could you try running your CPU in "performance" mode, rather
        than the power-saving 1.6GHz mode that it is apparently
        running at?

            You could perhaps do a "perf top" and see what's
            consuming time.

            The Gnu Radio signal source blocks are not screamingly
            efficient, so it may be that they just aren't keeping up,
            although at 4Msps, you wouldn't expect them to be too
            stressed.

            Apologies for not forwarding to the full list. I'm
            attempting to run the attached flowgraph with the

            I have 8 GB of RAM, so don't think that's a problem.
            Running lspci | grep -i usb, I get the following output

            Thanks!
