Are you seeing spurs at harmonics of the USRP2's on-board 100 MHz reference? In other words, if you tune your USRP2 + WBX to 501 MHz, 601 MHz, 701 MHz, etc., do you see the spurs that you're referencing? The 1 MHz offset is so that the DC offset correction doesn't come into play. The ADF4350 used on the WBX does produce some spurious content, but they are typically low-level (-60 dBc or lower from my experience). The loop filter on the WBX is fairly narrow, so this should help remove spurs on the LO. If you can provide any additional information on the spurs you're seeing (screenshots of usrp2_fft.py would possibly be helpful), it may help diagnose what's going on. -- Regards, John Orlando CEO/System Architect Epiq Solutions www.epiq-solutions.com _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
