During my adventure of designing 433MHz receiver i have recently
discovered
misterious simetrical signal which I am not able to explain to myself. I
am
using USRP1 with WBX daughter board. While observing complex baseband
signal, I realized that depenting on RF gain I have a signal simmetrical
to
the transmitted signal. I have also attached a photo.

The utilities require transceiver boards like RFX, WBX, SBX. Also
unfortunately, requires FPGA support, which is not in USRP1.
I have USRP1 equipped with WBX and LFTX and LFRX daughter boards. When
want
to use /uhd_cal_rx_iq_balance/ to calibrate my WBX board it won’t do
that,
it says that calibration is not supported by hardware. I suppose the
problem
is uhd wants to calibrate LFRX board, and I don’t know how to specify
the
oder board.
Any suggestions?
