Hi,

At 436MHz with a gain setting of 76dB, NF of 5dB, BW of 2MHz, I expect the
noise floor of the B210 to be around -174+5+10*log10(2e6)=-105dBm

When I run the SDR Console software, this is what it appears to be. If I
feed in a 1MHz wide AWGN noise source at -100dBm, it can be seen 5dB about
the floor.

However, when I try to capture the same data using the MatLab USRP interface
or the rx_samples_to_file program (with same gain and sample rate), the
noise floor seems to be at around -90dBm.

(E.g: rx_samples_to_file.exe --duration 1 --rate 2000000 --freq 436e6 --gain
76)

Any idea why this might be? Possibly something silly, but I can't seem to
figure out what.

Thanks,
Jon
