Hello all,

I have an older version of gnuradio (pre 3.6.2) on one of my laptops.  When I 
run a simple script I made in GRC which has a USRP source block and a WAV file 
sink block it seems to work fine.  With nothing connected on the LFRX RF 
connectors, I get a signal with basically 0 amplitude with 0dB and 10dB gain.  
This version uses the USRP source block.


On my other laptop I have the newest version of GnuRadio.  I made the same 
exact script using the UHD source block in GRC.  When I run this script with 
the same exact hardware and nothing connected on the RF connector, I get a DC 
offset in the recorded signal.  For 0dB gain, I get basically 0 amplitude, but 
for 10dB gain I get about -0.05, and for 15dB gain I get about -0.15.  This is 
on a +1/-1 scale.

The settings on the USRP source block and the UHD source block in the newer GRC 
version are the same.  The difference is there are a couple of extra parameters 
in the new UHD block that I just leave as default (for instance the bandwidth, 
etc).  Is there a reason I am seeing this offset with the newer version which 
uses the UHD block?  I'm wondering if I need to specify additional parameters 
in order to make it act like the USRP source block from the older version?

Thank you, 

Tom.
