Hi Danny, I think what you want is the regular 'fft' with the number of simultaneous inputs set to 0. This gives you two independent streams labels as pol0 and pol1. Cheers, Laura On Thu, Mar 18, 2010 at 11:12 AM, Danny Price danny.pr...@astro.ox.ac.uk wrote: G'day all Does anyone have

Hi all, For the reasons Andrew mentioned, I think a split in the library should happen as late as possible. While everyone means well, I'm dubious that bugs and features would be back applied to older versions. In my experience using mlib_devel_10_1 with both 10.1 and 11.? on Windows and Linux

Maybe it's overheating?  Do you have a little fan right on the FPGA? We've found that is necessary, even in a proper case.  We cut a hole in the lid and add a fan right over the chip. Interesting idea. I do have a small fan attached to the iBOB heat sink. It was running at the time. The iBOB
