students working on it, it should not be a problem. Single part price is $79 but I expect Arrow may give a significant price break for a university. Evan Merewether - Be at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let every new year find you a better man - Ben Franklin -Original

Try http://www.l-com.com/. A new packaged 1W amplifier for $130 seems reasonable to me. Anything over 1W is ...available only for export, military, licensed amateur radio and OEM component sales and are not offered for general sale within the USA. Evan Merewether - 575-640-5582

For a general purpose linear amplifier, it is hard to beat minicircuits. Just be careful not to overdrive it, they get toasted easily. http://www.minicircuits.com/pdfs/ZHL-1-2W.pdf Evan Merewether -Original Message- From: discuss-gnuradio-bounces+evan=syndetix@gnu.org

The problem with many of these types of appliances is that they include MODEM functions inside the module. For use with a USRP, you will need to dissect them to get to the physical interface to the powerline. _ From: discuss-gnuradio-bounces+evan=syndetix@gnu.org

Two issues: 1) Large resistors results in large attenuation. This circuit attenuates 120VAC to ~5V for the microcontroller. 2) You would need to un-ground all of the components (USRP + PC + you) and float everything to somewhere around 60V -Original Message- From:

The easy button to interface to the AC plug would be to pick up some old power line telephone extenders from Radio Shack and cut them open. You could then use the basic RX and TX cards. _ From: discuss-gnuradio-bounces+evan=syndetix@gnu.org

Has anybody looked at using the CORDIC approximation for atan2? Depending on the required accuracy, this may dramatically improve performance in your C code. Ultimately, you can implement the CORDIC functions in the FPGA (quasi math-coprocessor style) which would then give you the fastest

I have noticed that there are some fixed frequency spurious signals in my N210. These spurious signals are probably associated with the harmonics of the clock. If your DC component is at some nice even frequency like 2GHz, I would suspect a spurious signal to be the cause. Evan -Original
