Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Tx Burst for Chirp signals

[CEL]

sure, but it's not the way I'd recommend for perfectly periodic
transmissions and I'm almost certain this will just lead us further
down your XY problem: https://xyproblem.info

Can you maybe explain in detail what you need chirps for, why you need
them at this low repitition rate, what the purpose of all this is? We
might be better at helping you that way.

thank you,
Marcus
