So this set of blocks will encapsulate a stream over VRL (vita radio
link layer) and VITA49 IF data packets. The VRL is really what makes
this work because its so much easier to do bounds recovery with.

Perhaps you can use this with the GrExtras socket block to receive from
your analyzer. Or perhaps with some minor modifications:
