Does anyone know if the QAM demodulator code is working properly?  I would
like to get a QAM demodulator working for a symbol rate of 300ksym/s. I
don't know whether I am just using the wrong parameters or if the blocks do
not work properly, but I am not getting the results I expect.

To test the code out I am using the GRC. I have a vector source with a
known data sequence running into the qam mod block and then the output of
that into a QAM demod block. The output of the QAM demod is running into a
Uchar to Float, and I am plotting the results on a WX GUI Scope.  I have
the exact same settings on both the QAM mod and demod blocks.  The output I
am seeing on the scope looks completely random. (I also tried other vector
source data: When the input is 0x0F, repeating, the output I see is
00001010 repeating. But when I use 0x0E, the results are random again.)

I have also tried demodulating a real QAM signal with a known data
sequence, also to no avail.

I have been working on this for about a month now and haven't had any
success.  I have examined the underlying QAM.py and generic_mod,
generic_demod codes, and they seem to be written properly. But I am not
getting the expected results.

Any help with this problem or advice you can give will be greatly
appreciated, and I will return the favor by helping out in any way that I
can.

Thank you very much in advance,

Jeff
