Just wanted to add that if you choose  option four,
ie you have at the output of the constellation_receiver
a phase-corrected complex stream then you can use it
directly as the input to the viterbi_combined
block so that you avoid the use of the
trellis.constellation_metrics_cf block.

constellation_receiver has four optional outputs.  The fourth is a
phase-corrected complex number.  You could use this as the input to
your metric calculation.

This function is called by trellis.constellation_metrics_cf which
generates metrics that you can feed into the viterbi block.  Metrics
are calculated for every constellation point, so for large
constellations the efficiency will be appalling.
