[Discuss-gnuradio] Is there a reason why this wouldn't shift the signal that is demodulated?

[Jonathan Coveney]

My goal is to be able to read a frequency other than the frequency that was tuned to draw samples using usrp_rcv_cfile (ie I used 93.3M, and want to be able to demodulate 92.5M...I'd try to use lessons learned from wfm_rcv2 but that uses set_rx_freq in the pipelines, which obviously I don't have access to)

Taking a cue from this http://www.nabble.com/Frequency-Hopping-td20538730.html
I tried to shift by -.8Mhz

        mix_freq = -.8e6
        Cosine = gr.sig_source_f(usrp_rate,gr.GR_COS_WAVE,mix_freq,1,0)
        Sin    = gr.sig_source_f(usrp_rate,gr.GR_SIN_WAVE,mix_freq,1,0)

        self.expjw = gr.float_to_complex()
        self.connect(Cosine,(self.expjw,0))
        self.connect(Sin,(self.expjw,1))

        self.mixer = gr.multiply_cc() 
    
        self.connect (self.u, (self.mixer, 0))
        self.connect (self.expjw, (self.mixer, 1))
        
        self.connect (self.mixer, gr.throttle(gr.sizeof_gr_complex, usrp_rate), chan_filt, self.guts, self.volume_control, audio_sink)

I also tried using freq_xlating_fir_filter_ccf (which googling looked like it was overkill) to no effect. In both cases I just hear a noisy version of 93.3M, I can't get it to focus on something that wasn't the center of the frequency that my samples were taken.

Any ideas?
