Since it's AM, try shifting your center frequency by a little bit.

Extract the envelope the same way, though.

My thought is the DC cancellation circuitry in the 9361 is killing your AM waveform, so use a low-IF approach instead.

You beat me to it. Yes, this will be true of most direct-conversion architectures--there will be DC-offset removal in the analog (or digital) pathways before samples are delivered to the host. That removal process will turn the DC anomaly from a large spur to a notch, so if you are doing narrow-band AM demodulation at "DC" in the complex signal domain, some of that signal
  will have  been removed.   Offset tuning eliminates this issue.

    I reduced to -40db, -50db and have the same result..

    I attached the pictures of b200mini vs other SDR with the same
    signal generator..

    I expect the same result with the 'other SDR' result..
    The IQ data of b200 is seems to be incorrect (imbalance? )

    I have tried the uhd of these version :
    v3.14.0.0-rc3 ,
    release_003_007_001,
    release_003_010_001_000

    But all have the same result..

    I tried to disable the set_auto_iq_balance to both false and true,
    but have no effect..

    Thank you

        -20dBM is loud. Try backing the generator down to -40dBm

        I set the generator at -20db and b200 gain at 50..
        I check that there is no cutoff at the usrp output and the
        input to AM demod block..

        Below are the setting of uhd block in gnuradio
        Samp rate 500k
        Output type float32
        Sync PC clock

            So, i try to make AM receiver..
            And the resulted demodulated audio was distorted from
            its original signal..
            So, at this experiment i used signal generator to make
            AM with sine wave modulated signal..
            I expect to get pure sine wave signal after AM demod
            process..
            However, the sine wave is distorted as attached picture

            I compared with another brand SDR and can get my
            expected signal..
            So i guess there is some problem with the b210mini

            Thank you

                    Dear USRP users,

                    I used b210mini and encounter I/Q imbalance as
                    below picture..
                    As a result, the analog signal demodulation was
                    distorted and result a crappy sound..
                    I
                    Is there any workaround regarding this issue?

                    Thank you


                Not sure what you mean.  The I/Q seem to be about
                90deg out of phase wrt one another, which is exactly
                what you'd expect.

                Could you describe what it is you're trying to do?
                Something with an audio demodulator?
