Hi all
for a research project I'm trying to record and replay few seconds of GPS 
signal. The recording part has been done correctly, a 40 seconds GPS 
acquisition has been tested against a GPS-SDR receiver obtaining a correct 
position fix. Now I'd like to transmit the recorded signal through RF cable and
see if a commercial GPS receiver is able to get the position fix as well. The 
problem is that, as soon as I start the simple flow graph in GNU radio I get 
the "U" underrun warning (side note: PC became un-responding too) and it seems 
I'm not transmitting at all.
Here's the complete description of the problem:

Front-end: USRP N210 with WBX

Recorded file:

        data type: complex float32
        centre freq: GPS L1
        sampling rate: 10 MHz
        acquisition length: 40 seconds
        recorded file size: 3.2 GB

Host PC:

        OS: Windows 10 Pro (64bit)
        CPU: Intel Core i7-7820HQ
        RAM: 32 GB
        HD: Toshiba THNSNK512GCS8 (545 MB/s write speed)
        network adapter: gigabit capable

USRP Sink configuration:

        sampling rate: 10 MHz
        input type: complex float32
        wire format: automatic
        centre freq: GPS L1
        Ch0:Antenna TX/RX
        (everything else as default)

>From the numbers I wouldn't say that the bottleneck is the HD (in any case 
>I've already tried loading the recorded file from a RAMdisk with the same 
>problems...) or the network speed.
Any idea on what I'm doing wrong and how to get rid of the underrun warning?
Thanks in advance

Fabrizio
