Thanks Matt!
But,could I ask you 2 more questions please!

1.Where can i get the specification,block diagrams or schematics(PCB) 
for this XCVR2450?
2.Currently I am using Gnuradio 3.0, but i want to update to the upto 
date version. So, does this board has compatibility(works without 
problem) with the newest versions of gnu radio?
