Hi Matt,
In reviewing the schematic of the dbsrx daughtercard, I noticed that there
are two i2c devices (the EEPROM and the MAX211x receiver chip).  In general
for the daughtercards, address bit A1 determines side A or side B, and A0
determines if the card is an rx or tx card, and this is hard-coded by the
USRP itself.  So...if a user has two dbsrx cards in their USRP, I think the
EEPROM of the dbsrx on side A would have the same address as the MAX211x on
side B, and vice versa.  Wouldn't this be an issue?

Of course, I'm guessing there is a logical explanation as to how this is
mitigated, as I found several folks in the archives that mention using two
dbsrx cards simultaneously.  Any insight is appreciated.

Also, is there a reason that address bit A2 isn't used to select different
i2c devices on the same card?

Thanks much...
