I have to reduce the baseband amplitude from 0.96 to 0.67 to achieve
the same IMD.
This is a very annoying issue for me, especially since I've set levels
in the Gnu Radio gr-dtv example flow graphs based on previous behavior.

I think it was Michael West who worked on the scaling issues in B2xx.
The internal implementation had been wrong for a long time,
from what I understood. This has the unfortunate side-effect that
previous carefully-set baseband levels may no longer work properly.
Unfortunately, there's no "set the baseband magnitude and RF gain as
loud as you can without producing excessive IMD" operator in UHD.

I'll try that. It's going to take a while though since I have to

Understood. Sorry for the PITA....

No change with 3.13.0. Haven't tried 3.14, since it's not released

Is this effect independent of baseband magnitude?

I had previously noted that the B210 TX power had increased by
about 5 dB going from UHD 3.11.1.0 to UHD 3.12.0. Today, I was
doing some two tone IMD testing and noticed that the IMD
performance has degraded *severely* from UHD 3.11.1.0 to UHD 3.12.0.
Here are the spectrum analyzer plots at roughly the same power
level. The 3rd order two tone IMD level changes from almost -50
dB in 3.11.0.1 to a hideous -20 dB with 3.12.0. Something is
terribly wrong.
I know that there had been some "futzing" with scaling in the
B2xx at around that time. What about 3.13 or 3.14?
