Hi Cristian,

you need to subscribe a /handler/ to the message port. See:

https://wiki.gnuradio.org/index.php/Guided_Tutorial_Programming_Topics#5.3.2_Adding_Message_Passing_to_the_Code

It's absolutely up to you what kind of PMT you're publishing over a
message port, but it's canonical to have a PMT dict that maps

pmt::mp("propertyname") -> pmt::whateversuitsyourproperty.

As an example, see what the gr-uhd blocks accept [1]

Best regards,

Marcus
