Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] gnuradio-companion GUI sinks don't scale to laptop screen resolution

Hi Alex, yes, thanks for that info. That is the solution that I settled on in the interim, it just means that applications are not as portable as I would like, e.g building an application on a desktop PC with a larger screen and then transferring to a laptop to be used at a presentation somewhere.

You would need a very very accurate real time guarantee on how long it would take to process/detect an echo, and then to respond to it. To my knowledge the GNURadio framework cannot make that guarantee, in general. I would not try to depend on getting an accurate time for signal processing delay an

The two device are not clock syncronized. My end goal is clock syncroniztation & ranging. The true problem is if it’s possible to compute the time difference between an incoming sample and a outgoing sample from USRP. This is critical since i have to compute the time elapsed (due to calculation &

Hi, There is an (older) article on listening to FM radio in Linux Journal http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/7505 It's good to understand how GNU Radio and the demod chain works, and what the parameters of usrp_wfm.py do. However, on the hardware side you need the TVRX or WBX board to tune to
