Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Late packets after restart

Hey the higher sample rate fixed it. It is functioning every time at a 10M rate. Thanks!

I have an issue running a signal using a USRPx300 where I can run the script the first time without any issues, but if I stop and restart the signal, I get endless late packet code LLLLLLLLL. I am using GR maint-3.7 and UHD 3.14.1.0. I will post what I have below. Also, as a side note, I have to power cycle the radio to get it to function properly again.

One thing I'll comment on is that you should never need to run any of this stuff as root (via sudo).

You might try a more recent version of UHD (and matching FPGA code) to see if this fixes it.

Also, does the problem go away if you use a higher sample rate?
