Sorry my ignorance, I revised my question and i was not clearly...

There is a condition on line 1008 in usrp_standard.cc code. That condition
limits the LO frequency (see my schematic) to the maximum of 44 MHz, OK? But
you can read in the mailing list that the baseband frequency is limited to 4
MHz, then you are able to tx just 48 MHz (f_RX = f_baseband + f_LO = 4 MHz +
44 MHz = 48 MHz).

With my USRP using the BasicTX daughterboard I can tune my system until 248
MHz ( f_LO = 244 MHz + f_baseband = 4 MHz).

My question is: How can the BasicTX tune up to 244 MHz if the usrp_standard
doesn't allow to tune up it more than 44 MHz?

(Sorry my poor english, I'm learning yet...)

Thank you a lot,

Ronaldo
