Hello Martin,

it prints the following: home/username/snap/code/188/.local/share/uhd/cal
That folder does not exist, the deepest path I can go is
home/username/snap/code/188/.local/share/
I manually created the folders uhd/cal and pasted the calibration files
there. Now the function usrp.has_rx_power_reference() returns True. I'll
investigate further.
