Ok thanks. In my haste I was mistaken in assuming that the LO gain would track with the RF output gain. Silly mistake. I’m still getting used to separating out the LO.
I can put this on a SpectrumAnalyzer (with an attenuator in line) on Monday. I’m trying to take channel to channel phase measurements to determine what level of phase control I can have over one channel. It’s not critical that I use GNURadio but it seemed like the logical option as it’s very easy to make those adjustments. I will look at the python API and see if the commands Rob was talking about can be invoked using Python instead of writing a C++ application. Then I’ll see if that is included in gr-uhd. If not, I can submit a pull request with any changes. I’ll ping the gnuradio chat later tonight. Thanks for the help guys are in <end transmission> > On Jan 14, 2022, at 17:43, Marcus D.
