I am using GRC. I used a signal source block generating a complex sine at
100kHz. The USRP interpolation is 128 and the sampling rate of the sine
generator is 1MHz. The USRP connected to another computer has USRP source
configured at 64 decimation and is connected to an FFT block. I don't see
any peak at the expected frequency or anywhere in the plot. Its just a flat
plot. I checked the USRP settings on both and they are configured right. I
even have transmit gain and receive gain as 10dB on both sides.

What can be wrong here?

Thanks
