I think it's a great start! Easy to evolve from here.

Most of the OFDM updates are on master with a few tweaks to the
interface that are on next.

We identified the main bug that's preventing it from working
completely last week. We just have to see about the right way to fix
is, which will hopefully be soon.

Hopefully Martin, Ben, or Matt can find time to fill out this section
of the wiki, since they did the majority of the rework (might even be
a good staging ground to an actual published paper at the SDR Tech
Conference or somewhere else appropriate).
