Re: Problems with the GNU WiFi and the USRP B210

So I'll agree here, I would not have opened your docx file if Marcus had
not already opened it.

To everyone on the mailing list, please avoid attaching documents, but if
you must, please only use PDF.

And if you have lots of output or code or something, please use Pastebin or
something like that, please do not dump it into your email and send an
email that's like 200 lines long.

Re: .docx attachments (was Problems with the GNU WiFi and the USRP B210)

I too had the same immediate reaction, and did not look at the file.

For what its worth, I ran it through Jotti's Malware scanner, and
it found nothing suspicious.

your file contains valid info. But I thought this was just a spam or

see such malicious attachments regularly going through my spam filter.
Also, use pdf please.

Since we are on a publicly archived mailing list, it is really
preferable to describe your issue directly in your email and just

to a platform and just add a link to their email.

Hi Silvio,

please do not send docx Files. After reading Marcus answer, I assume 
your file contains valid info. But I thought this was just a spam or 
phishing mail. I'd totally expect some malicious macro in such a file. I 
see such malicious attachments regularly going through my spam filter.

Also, use pdf please.

Since we are on a publicly archived mailing list, it is really 
preferable to describe your issue directly in your email and just 
reference illustrations. In the past, people were asked to upload files 
to a platform and just add a link to their email.

Same-box loopback without considerable attenuation in the coax is not 
healthy for the receiver (worst case), and best-case will cause

  non-linear operation of the receiver gain chain.

Most SDRs are designed so that their receivers can be used directly "on 
the air", and so have receiver gain stages that are optimized for
  that application.  That means that they will be horribly non-linear 
when presented with the high power levels produced by a typical

  transmitter.
