Join the club!! :-) This thing requires some heavy perseverance !!
So, if you apply the patch that I sent across earlier, and the rational
resampler input settings is at 32050, and the output rate setting is at 48000.
I have attached the full file below.
usrp2_wfm_rr_rcv.py
Description: Text Data
I just changed my USRP2 driver environment to use the new UHD driver, and so
can't run it right now, to tell you the interp and decim values. That would get
precomputed depending upon the settings for the rational resampler input and
output rates.
I'm just waiting for some one to reply with a sample UHD example, so that I can
convert the attached program to one that works with the gr-uhd driver, instead
of the existing gr-usrp2 driver.
The FM reception came out crystal clear, only once, with very few S's and no
audio under-runs (aU)
All the other attempts, there was a lot of distortion and audio under-runs.
You should use a really long piece of wire connected to the inner connector of
the RX2 port of the WBX daughter card, via the SMA F connector that comes out
in front.
Also set the volume (0.0) and gain sliders to max (31.5db)
I also observed that of all the possible FM stations, I only got one with
sufficient clarity, and all the others were garbled. Not sure if this has
something to do with tuning to the center frequency.
Best regards,
Elvis
