Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Packet decoder does not output the last packet

[CEL]

Dear Ms. Williams,

I'm sorry you fell into that trap, but:

Packet Encoder/Decoder is known to be buggy. That's why it's in the
"deprecated" category. Simply don't use them.

You'll find a better example in the GNU Radio examples that were
shipped in /usr/share/gnuradio/examples/digital, specifically in
/usr/share/gnuradio/examples/digital/packet/packet_loopback_hier.grc
and the detailed packet_rx.grc and packet_tx.grc.

Best regards,
Marcus
