Thanks Eric, I am using GNU Radio git depository installed a month ago. tried on Cygwin 1.7.5+WinXP and OSX 10.6.3+Macbook, both behaved the same. I'll try ubuntu tomorrow when I have access to another PC. Ctrl+C exits the program but not caught by except. On 17/06/2010, at 5:45 AM, Eric Blossom w

Thanks for your reply.. Then what will be the data rate across USB2.0?. Normally in USRP documentation they have given that the samples were transfered in IQIQIQIQ fashion and each complex sample is a combination of two 16-bit integers,so 4 bytes per each complex sample ,hence the maximum data r
