Martin, Michael,
Sorry for the long delay in responding.  I hadn't been monitoring the
user's list this past week and the replies you sent did not come directly
to my inbox.  In any event, I compiled the latest MPM and it seems to work
fine.  Thank you.

Now, to the secondary issue I mentioned in the first post of this thread:
rx streaming timeouts. These timeouts intermittently occur in my
application when doing repeated rx captures (i.e., error never occurs on
first capture).  I tracked it down today to my application's use of
STREAM_MODE_START_CONTINUOUS rather than STREAM_MODE_NUM_SAMPS_AND_DONE for
the capture.  After changing my code to use the latter, it works well with
no timeouts.

A couple of remarks:

   - I don't know if this is of concern to you or not. Perhaps I should be
   using it the new way anyway.  A long time ago I had made the decision to
   use STREAM_MODE_START_CONTINUOUS because I was getting one or two overflows
   right at the start of the capture (B210) and I didn't want the capture to
   abort as it did if I used STREAM_MODE_NUM_SAMPS_AND_DONE.
   - With other products (B210 & X310), I have been using my application
   and STREAM_MODE_START_CONTINUOUS for several years, successfully.  (That
   said, I do want to mention that I have had occasional issues ever since
   Ettus moved away from 3.9 such that I still use 3.9 when I am able to do
   so.  Perhaps this stream mode change would have fixed such occasional
   issues???)
   - If you are interested in this issue, I modified the Ettus example
   "txrx_loopback_to_file" to add a 'for loop' around the receive captures and
   changed the stream mode to always be STREAM_MODE_START_CONTINUOUS.  The
   changes I made are few and straightforward.  If you run compile this
   modified example and run with the command line shown in the terminal log
   (see attached), you should be able to duplicate this issue.
