Hi Jonathan,

Just following up on this. I have switched to the UHD 3.13 release + FPGA 
version 5.2. This issue still persists.

Is it possible that a change to UHD could be causing this to not work?

If anyone can confirm that they are able to send commands to the radio block 
from an rfnoc block in recent versions of UHD it would help a lot.

Thanks,

Sam
