The problem seems to be that the "NumChains"  input for the DUC (& likely
DDC) is not being set and thus defaulting to 1 chain per DUC.  This is a
problem for the N310 that has 2 channels per radio.  I noticed that the
file rfnoc_ce_default_inst_n310.v has NumChains specified as
NUM_CHANNELS_PER_RADIO whereas the file rfnoc_ce_auto_inst_n310.v which is
created by the uhd_image_builder.py script does not have this input
specified.

I could not find a way to use a uhd_image_builder.py command line option in
order to change the behavior described above. However, it seems you can use
a "yml" config file rather than the command line options to configure the
behavior of this script.  In fact, I found "yml" files auto_inst_e310.yml
and auto_inst_x310.yml. However, I did not find one for the n310.  I'm not
sure if this is an oversight or if the user is just expected to create this
file on his own.

Let me know if I am on the wrong track here or there is a better way.
Thanks.
Rob
