Hello all,
I'm recording RF signal at 1.5 GHz using usrp2 with wbx daughterboard of fixed 
BW of 40 MHz; since I'm interested to capture the whole BW, I set the 
over-the-wire format to sc8 to be able to have 50 MSps rate; as example 
rx_samples_to_file suggests, there is no "byte" or "char" format to store 8 bit 
IQ samples; now, if I use "short" type and try to read my binary file using 
matlab, for example, and use the same "int16" format as I was doing for SC16 
wireformat, i.e interpreting it as I1, Q1, I2, Q2 ..... using "int16" reading 
format, the spectrum looks not the way it should. I know it also has to do with 
the host cpu format which in my case it is 64 bit processor but I don't know 
how to manage the transformation between the host and the packet router. Can 
some please explain how it works and if possible how to interpret the data on 
platform other than uhd? it is also appreciated if explain how I could store 
using 8 bit format so that the file size be reduced to half. 
Thanks,
