Also, what RF gain are you setting? Does it exceed the maximum input level of the spectrum analyser?
Try reducing the amplitude to 0.7. Another possibility is that your computer can't keep up. If you are using one of the standard programs, are there U's printing in the terminal?
Matt
Are you connected directly, or with an antenna?

A colleague and I are sending a simple signal in GNU Radio (sine wave, 1 MHz, amplitude of 1) to the USRP sink and have the center frequency at 500 MHz. The N210 USRP is hooked up to an Agilent spectrum analyzer. On the analyzer we are seeing a weird phenomena every two seconds. At first we see the carrier frequency and two sidebands from the sine wave (see attached normal.gif). Then after two seconds we get two bursts of multiple harmonics (see odd.gif).
The question is, why is this happening? Does the phase of the 1 KHz signal become discontinuous before or after being sent to the USRP?
Thanks,

https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradioI don't recall seeing any U's but I can recheck tomorrow. The gain on the USRP was set to -2. The USRP was connected directly with an SMA cable. The analyzer is an Agilent E4440A, the Analyzer is rated for at least 1 Watt on average, 100 Watt on a peak pulse (with the built-in attenuator in use). While I am not ruling out the maximum input I thought the N210 tops out at 0.5 Watts due to FCC regulations.
ThanksJon
