Hello Martin,

If you create a block which input is message and output is float. And
message is arrive discrete just like packet in network, I want the block
output port will output 0 when no message arrive at input port. Can I do
that?

Why I ask this question is that I a while ago I trying to create a
communication system which I defined and there has two kinds of channel one
is control channel and the other one is message channel like the GSM system
I think so, and I'm using FDD. And control channel is using gmsk modulation
and message channel is using fm modulation because I just want to transmit
audio, I using enough BW to avoid aliasing. After gmsk mod and fm mod, I
add them together but result failed, because add block in gnuradio will
wait when two input data and add one-by-one so if if port one data is much
more then port two, and the add will hold port one data and wait port two
data then add one-by-one.

I have recreate the same situation and past in the mail, it is python file
and can test it to check the problem

Here is my setting : I have two source one is audio source and the other is
packet, and I add it together and output to audio sink. Important audio
source will generate data when program start. The first 5 second no packet
is send. After 5 second packet source will send 1000 packets, meantime,
speaker have sound, and if you have say something in first 5 seconds, you
will hear what you say in the first 5 second now.
