The issue turned out to be jiggering the numbers that say "I strongly
suggest that you not mess with these..."   * by .707 for the bit timing
loop worked  ;)

We want a complex pll so it can take data directly from the usrp
centered on DC, w/o having to mix it up to 5.75e6 and converting to
real for the old fpll, which was just a trick to  look like the old
mc4020 adc boards.
