Hi Marcus,

   Thanks.      Does that mean we need a new install of GR?   The one we have is quite recent. 
build-gnuradio by default installs the "maint" branch--since that is, generally, more likely to be somewhat-more-stable.  If you use the -m option to
  build-gnuradio, it'll fetch "master".

This fix is quite recent.



Regarding the TVRX2, I did not know about the AGC issue.   We are using it for RA (pulsar searches).     Since we are doing synchronous detection, it's not clear to me that the AGC will be a fundamental problem, since we don't need quantitative power measurements.  We wanted two channels since we are using crossed Yagi's.     I don't see any alternatives from Ettus.

In terms of multi-channel daughtercards for N2xx/USRP1/X3xx/E1xx, yeah, the TVRX2 is it.

But the B210 is dual-channel, strictly-coherent (they share the same LO).  Ken Tapping and I have been doing C-band correlation interferometry with
  one.
