It doesn't look like you're doing any carrier recovery?

Before putting USRP blocks in there, maybe you should try a straight
simulation that adds noise and some frequency offset artificially.  Get
that working, and then connect up the USRP source/sink?

Around 50% BER is what you would expect from a random signal.  100% BER is
very good since you just need to flip all the bits and you get the right
answer!  That is also given the input signal statistics are sufficiently
whitened/random.

You might want to take a step away from putting blocks in GRC and just take
a look at some of the resources on the GNU Radio wiki about suggested

Sanity is hard to come by if you're dealing with magic.

Good Luck!
