Hi, i'd like to do spectral smoothing on an FFT in real time through GNU_RADIO. Is there a function that will allow me to do this in the GNU_RADIO modules? If not has anyone attempted it before, or have any suggestions as to how I should go about implementing it myself. Perhaps any ideas of

Oddly enough, usrp_oscope.py doesn't show any DC bias whatsoever, regardless of what offset I put into the function generator. Maybe it's removed inside the flow-graph? DC offset is automatically removed in hardware, but you can turn that feature off. Can you explain that in more

If there is no dc-removing capacitor in the circuitry , then should I not expect that for a board using a single (positive) supply, that the signal is always above zero? No, you can put a negative voltage in, as long as it doesn't go below -3.33V. You need to look at the schematics --
