I did some more searching on the google machine and found:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/discuss-gnuradio/2012-04/msg00500.html

It's like my setup, minus the throttle and the pack K bits, with the
addition of packets on either side of the modulator/demodulator. Ran the
new setup, and it gives me the correct file on the output, but when I turn
off "repeat" in the file source, I get no output.

Why is repeat magical, and why did I have to packetize my file before
sending? Shouldn't it have just sent as a stream of bits without packets?

Thanks,
