All: I did deemphasis on Left and Right and checked it in just now. It is much better now. Thanks for the links to the RDS stuff. I will take a look. THANKS it already sounds much better. Bob al davis wrote: On Tuesday 14 February 2006 00:13, Robert McGwier wrote: But the COMPOSIT

[Discuss-gnuradio] gnuradio flowgraph mechanism

2006-02-13 Thread Ges
Hi Eric,I am trying to rewrite the flowgraph mechanism written in Python into C++ so that I can run the GNU Radio modules written in C++ as such in the Click software router. But, as I started to work on it,  i found that converting the code written in Python into C++ is not such a trivial exercise

Al, Matt: Thanks for your input. I am pretty ignorant about these FM standards and basically I googled my way to a reasonable spec, drew the flow graph and coded it. The stereo demux was definitely not working with DEemphasis applied to the composite signal. And it was clear why. The tap

The stereo separation is pretty awesome. However on stations that are full quieting with monoaural transmissions, the stereo demultiplexer is introducing hiss.On really strong stations, it is hard to hear. The deemphasis has been removed from the processing chain while I try and figure o
