Thanks for your response and please, forgive the delay in responding.
I recorded the different sampling rates and the warnings that sometimes appeared for some sampling rates.

For example, when I set samp_rate=960kHz, it gave this message:
** UHD Warning:
    The requested decimation is odd; the user should expect CIC rolloff.
    Select an even decimation to ensure that a halfband filter is enabled.
    decimation = dsp_rate/samp_rate -> 65 = (58.880000 MHz)/(0.910000 MHz)

But, on the other hand, when I set samp_rate= 650 kHz -- that is to say, then the noise level doe NOT take a 20 dB jump -- it gave me the same message:
** UHD Warning:
    The requested decimation is odd; the user should expect CIC rolloff.
    Select an even decimation to ensure that a halfband filter is enabled.
    decimation = dsp_rate/samp_rate -> 65 = (41.600000 MHz)/(0.640000 MHz)

In both cases I warned about CIC roll-off, but one of them has the 20dB jump and the other does not.

As per your instructions, I checked a "bad" one surrounded by two "good" ones:
Trial 1:
samp_rate=110kHz Average_noise=-83dBFS asking_clock_rate=56.32MHz & samp_rate=120kHz Average_noise=-67dBFS asking_clock_rate=61.44MHz& samp_rate=130kHz Average_noise=-82dBFS asking_clock_rate=33.22MHz
no warnings about sampling rate in any of the three

Trial 2:
samp_rate=220kHz Average_noise=-82dBFS asking_clock_rate=56.32MHz & samp_rate=240kHz Average_noise=-64dBFS asking_clock_rate=61.44MHz & samp_rate=250kHz Average_noise=-81dBFS asking_clock_rate=32MHz Only one message showed up for samp_rate=250kHz (which does not suffer 20dB jump):
**  UHD Error:
    recv packet demuxer unexpected sid 0x20020a0
D

Any ideas?

Thanks again for your time.
Regards

It would be very useful to look at the FFTs (spectrum) of the band when selecting the "bad" sample rates. You're mostly looking at internal noise under the conditions you describe (shorted antenna input, and 0dB gain).
