Gold Code PN Source

Hi Ed

Can I have a look at your Gold Code source block.

Thanks
Ali

The block makes use of the existing glfsr block.
Two of them are setup and XOR’ed. The “tdrss”
package containes a set of low level utilities,
including the ‘xor’ operation.

Just FYI, release 3.1.2 added a set of boolean blocks, including
gr.xor_bb, by Tim M…
