But you can make your own constellation with whatever symbol map and
constellation points you want. If you have the latest version of GNU
Radio checked out of git, there is a 'Constellation Object' GRC block
that helps with this. You give it a list of complex points for the
constellation and a list of symbols of 0 to (k-1) for the mapping of
the bits to constellation points.
