Andrey Sviyazov andreysviyaz at gmail.comHi Thomas. Do you use TXLPF and which if yes? And also, please let us know other registers dump of TX part, especially TXVGA's. Btw, unfortunatelly, I do not know how to switch LPF otherwise than by direct registers access. Now I work with power consumption and forced to write to registers to see can LPF to suppress spurs (which occur without LDO regulators) or not. Best regards, Andrey Sviyazov. 2012/10/25 Thomas Tsou <ttsou at vt.edu> > Hi all, > > I spent some time yesterday testing UmTRX with MCBTS.
