The frequency band ranges from 470MHz to 806MHz, each channel's frequency
band is 8MHz, so we have 42 channels in total. Channel 1,3,5,7 are analog
channels, others are digital channels.

I want to set the value of parameters in usrp_spectrum_sense.py as follows:

fft-size: 2048
channel-bandwidth:8e6
samp-rate:12.5e6
freq_step: 8e6.
dwell-delay:0.5
tune-delay:0.5

I experiment with ./usrp_spectrum_sense.py
Then for each channel, we have 2048 bins, which can be used to calculate
each channel's power(in dB).

Am I right?
