[Discuss-gnuradio] Re: USRP Tx Question

[Jeffrey Karrels]

I am currently exploring the multiple USRP Tx problem. I came across a
thread from 2006 with someone working on similar problems... Has there
been any progress on this? I don't want to duplicate any work.

Thanks

OK.

Just copy the foo.rbf file to PREFIX/share/usrp/rev<N>/foo.rbf
