Hi Marcus,

I updated the flow graph (attached) as you suggested. It would be great if
you can help check and let me know if I am wrong...

For upgrading the UHD, I followed this link. UHD is installed successfully.
However, it seems that gnuradio does not call the latest UHD. Instead, it
still calls uhd-host which is combined in the gnuradio package. Do you have
suggestions about how to solve this problem? Thanks.
