At a minimum, you will need to call pick_tx_bitrate and
pick_rx_bitrate providing proper rates for the ADC and DAC.  They
default to the values appropriate for the USRP1.  However, it looks
like you'll need a USRP2 version since they encode the acceptable
ranges for interpolation and decimation which are different between
the USRP1 and USRP2.
