Josh,

Thanks for the clarification.

Does it mean that, by this hacked code, turning off RX mixer at transmitting time happens on FPGA? Or does it happen at UHD on the host side?

Josh,

When you say " In any case, you can shutoff the rx mixer in full duplex
mode with this little change:", is it true that this radio, once started
with the changed code, cannot receive anymore at it runtime?

No: When, and only when, the device is simultaneously transmitting _and_
receiving (full duplex mode); the change will cause the rx mixer to be
turned off. This effectively feeds noise into the ADC.

So if you are always receiving, the mixer will only turn off when you
pass samples into the usrp sink block (which causes a transmission to
occur). Once all samples have been transmitted, the mixer will come back on.

The change is a "quick hack" and is not the recommended way to do things.
