Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] fft realated problems

Dear Firas,

Thanks for your reply, First of all I am using antenna (RX2), and yes I know
2.4 band is messed up with many wireless tech. but I am continuesly
monitoring it with spectrum analyzer during my experiments to make sure that
some other system is not working in the area.

I have tried with many TX and RF gains.

I am also using log function, and I have already checked with larger
tune_delays but all in vain????????

Any suggestions??

Best Regards
Kaleem Ahmad
