No, it shouldn't inherit from usrp_standard_rx.  Pass it a pointer
to the underlying object.

It would be nice if your code implemented the "trivial" stuff like
gain and frequency range, so that we can write generic code that works
with any daughterboard.

Please post it to address@hidden  You'll need to subscribe
before posting. 

We'll also need a copyright assignment to the FSF for the code.  I'll
send you a simple form to fill out in the next message.

You're welcome!

Thanks for working on this.  Having C++ versions for all the d'boards
is one of our goals.  Thanks for writing the first one!
