I'm programming a USRP B200mini-i in Python. When the receiver starts up, it automatically inserts a 'rx_freq' tag into the stream.
In my application I periodically change the receiver frequency using a command such as: self.uhd_usrp_source_0.set_center_freq(self.rf_freq, 0). This does indeed change the frequency, but it doesn't look like the source block is adding new 'rf_freq' tags to mark the changes. Does anyone know how to make that happen? I tried directly setting a class variable in a downstream block from top_block every time I change the frequency. That sort of works, but I don't think it's marking the exact right place in the stream, so I assume that's not a recommended approach. Finally, does the B200mini-i require any settling time after a frequency change, and if so, how much time? Is there a chance of getting bad samples during a frequency transition, or does the stream shut down until things stabilize? Thanks, Dave Rose Valkyrie Systems Corp.
