Hi Ken,

first question: Which USRP/Daughterboard?
Maybe you should be asking this question on the
[email protected] mailing list; I'm going to go ahead and CC:
that list in my reply.

Basically, limited crosstalk is very hard to avoid; especially when
trying to deal with a weak RX while TX'ing high power you'll run into
problems you can't really circumvent due to the fact that RF signals
on the same PCB inevitable leak.

An RX LNA close to the antenna is usually the way to go here, or even
separating RX and TX.

You could try turning off the TX amp (gain to 0 and transmit
complex(0,0)), maybe that might help more than shutting down the flow
graph. If you manage to get success using that way, I'd greatly
appreciate you notifying the list.

Greetings,
Marcus
