[Discuss-gnuradio] bug with gain setting in usrp1?

[Wolfgang Buesser]

Hi,
I am having problems with the gain-settings on the RX-channels of usrp1
My USRP1 is populated with 2 LFRX and 2 LFTX.

I want to use 2 DDC-channels each connect to one 2 ADC of LF-RX-Board A.
I have generated the following code with grc.

When  apply a signal of roughly 11MHz I see the mixed signals on each scope.
The relation to the inputs is o.k.

The gain-settings are however not as I expect:
self.uhd_usrp_source_0.set_gain(6, 1) affects both channels while 
self.uhd_usrp_source_0.set_gain(6, 0 has no effect.

>From what I rememeber that was different in the pre-uhd-times.

Any hint, on how I can set the gains for both channels independently?

Thanks

Wolfgang
