I have been experimenting with the gmsk demodulation block, and am able to successfully demod 50M+ continuous pseudorandom symbols at 2.0 MSym/sec. Kudos to the USRP + GNURadio devs for making that possible, and thanks for making GNU Radio open-source. The testing methodology so far has been to o

Hey, I'm hoping someone has run into this problem before... We have a that lab we access remotely, and sometimes the students get a little overzealous in e.g. their rate selection, and the machines become unresponsive. I seem to be having a hard time getting them to stop using realtime mode.
