Correct me, but this is 400kS/s – that should really not max out
anyone's system, unless the spread blocks are really terribly
inefficient (I don't think they are); please check this, though!

If I'm not mistaken, gr-spread doesn't tune the hardware or anything –
it just creates a continuous phase stream that changes frequency, in a
cyclic manner.

My guess is that the receiver is frequency-offset from the transmitter,
and hence, the demodulator "guesses" the wrong frequencies. Would that
be possible?

Ajinkya, are you frequency-aligning the two USRPs in any way?

Best regards,

Marcus
