Try usrp_siggen.py --help

You specified the RF center frequency, but took the default for the
signal generated at baseband (the -w <freq>).  By default it's 100kHz,
thus the peak near +0.1 MHz.

Admittedly this is a somewhat unusual interface for somebody who may
just want a sine wave out.  On the other hand, this code originally
existed to allow us to confirm that the system was working the way we
expected it behind the scenes.

I just checked in an update to usrp_siggen.py that now has the --help
list the default values for additional properties.
