Hi, I recently updated my GNU Radio using the build-gnuraido script. Now when I start gnuradio-companion, I get a warning saying: Warning: Block key "gr_message_burst_source" not found when loading category tree. linux; GNU C++ version 4.6.3 20120306 (Red Hat 4.6.3-2); Boost_104700; UHD_003.004.0

You said you replaced the channel model block with a USRP sink and source? Are you trying to TX / RX using a loopback? If so, remember to use attenuators so that you don't blow out your RX chain. Also, the channel model block cannot simply be replaced with a source and sink. There is a lot of o

Jo - You'll need to provide more details. You are clearly dumping the data to a file, but what is wrong with the samples? Have you plotted the samples in your file and confirmed that it at least looks how you expect it to? Are you getting the number of samples you expect? Is it the right data

[Discuss-gnuradio] Tagged File Sink in GRC

2012-07-26 Thread Daniel Labarowski
I compiled GNURadio using the build script yesterday. In a previous version of GNURadio, I believe that the Tagged File Sink was displayed in GNURadio Companion under sinks. I couldn't find it there so I search the build folder as well as my filesystem to find that I had no gr_tagged_file_sink.

Hi Josh, I am just wondering how the USRP performs the 8 bit mapping for I & Q samples. The ADC & DAC have 12 - 14 bit precision, I think. When I select the sc8 wire format, does the USRP divide the entire received signal range into 2^8 sectors and uses one number to represent each of those? Than

Thanks, Josh. How can I specify the peak from GRC generated Python code? For example, when I select the sc8 wire format, the following code is generated through GRC. stream_args=uhd.stream_args( cpu_format="fc32", otw_format="sc8", channels=range(1)

Looks like the Tagged FIle SInk was not fixed in the new update. I'm fairly certain that those new folders that appeared are the updated git pulls.
