The output rate of gr.quadrature_demod_cf is 8 times the symbol rate.
The selection of the center of the bit is done in gr.simple_correlator.
It watches for a pseudo random sync pattern at the beginning of
each packet and uses this to figure out which of the possible alignments
is best.  A similar technique is used in Bluetooth.
