Before trying to modify anything, start by building GNU Radio and
running the existing examples.  I suggest usrp_fft.py as a starting
point.

Once you've got those working and understand them, then begin to think
about making modifications.  Also, you'll have better luck with GNU
Radio under GNU/Linux than under Windows.  (You will have to use
windows to compile any Verilog changes.)  We do provide precompiled
verilog in svn and the tarballs.
