Hi,

As Marcus suggested, I put a frequency sink directly to the receiver to
look at the signal. Both at 1 MHz and 10 MHz the signal is noisy. The power
is around -120 to -100 db. However, in the case of 1 MHZ all packets sent
by the USRP transmitter are received correctly with almost negligible
packet error rate. However at 10 MHZ nothing is received. There are no over
or under runs. Why would it stop working at anything above 1 MHz ?

What could be the reason for this ?
