Hello I am trying to install RFNoC for uhd 3.15. As far as I understand,
this version supports RFNoC. And in order for me to have blocks in
gnuradio, as I understand it, I need to install gr-ettus. But when
installing, I get this error The found UHD version (3.15.0.0-3build2) is
not compatible with the version required (4.0). how can I be in such a
situation?

Hi Ivan,

The TX/RX and RX2 are ports on the same receiver channel. As Julian says
there are two receivers, A and B. For a receive only application the RX2
ports are slightly better performing as they have one less switch that
the signal passes through.

Regards,
Derek

Ivan,

to the best of my knowledge, there should not be any RX1 port.
Instead, you should have two (coherent) channels "A" and "B" both
allowing you to select one out of two available antenna ports when
receiving ("TX/RX" or "RX2").

Cheers,
Julian

Another question of interest is which channels are coherent? Rx1 and

 Right!
 Be careful, DOA estimation using only 2 antennas works but it’s not
 so accurate.
 Enjoy!

Hi Ivan,

Try building with the gr-ettus maint-3.7 branch.
