hi..
i am working on tx_voice.py and rx_voice.py. I have to capture data directly 
from usrp and write onto a file and process that. The problem is that the file 
which is made by the data coming from usrp is very big so basically i am not 
able to process that. Is there any way by which i can reduce the size of the 
file without affecting my audio quality much.

The rates which i am presently using on the tx_voice.py are:
Bitrate- 50,000
samples per symbol - 5
interpolation - 512

Rates which i am using on the rx_voice.py are:
Bitrate- 50,000
 samples per symbol - 5
decimation - 256.

Moreover, i have tried using gr.fir_filter_ccf (for decimatio in software)in 
the following fashion

        chan_coeffs = gr.firdes.low_pass (1.0,                  # gain
                                          self._samples_per_symbol, #     
sampling rate
                                          1.0,                  # midpoint of 
trans. band
                                          0.1,                  # width of 
trans. band
                                          gr.firdes.WIN_HANN)   # filter type 

        self.chan_filt = gr.fir_filter_ccc(sw_decim, chan_coeffs)

and making a connection as
    fg.connect(self.u,  self.chan_filt, self.packet_receiver)
    fg.connect(self.chan_filt,destination)

where destination refers to the file onto which i want to write.Now, this works 
fine as long as sw_decim =1. But, if i change the value to 2,4 ,8 or any other 
then i dont receive any packet. The file size does change as required (i am 
able to observe that as the usrp is always sending data). what i have 
understood is that because of the decimation i am missing samples and thus not 
able to receive packets.So, can somebody please explain how to get around the 
situation. 

Thanks for all the help.
