Yes. I can understand the LFRX does not have any adjustable gain. But what
comes out of the USRP source should be samples already digitized. Surely
there is gain to be adjusted before the ADC. According what I see, it is
from 0 to 6dB (in voltage?). I don't see how this can be inserted into the
USRP source block.

Also I have some related questions:
1. the float numbers out of the USRP source block appear to be in volts.
There is no indication of what units it is in.
2. Is there any way of specifying bandpass filters before the ADC? This
would probably be independent of the LFRX, but something on the motherboard
before the ADC? I do see an option in the USRP block that seem to do this.
However this bandpass may be after the ADC?

Thanks,

LD
