Good news. The Theseus Cores RFNoC polyphase filter bank channelizer is
working.

The channel 0 timeouts, which were a vexing problem, seem to be gone thanks
to hard work from EJ Kreinar and Phillip Vallance.

This particular part is vital for FDMA to TDM type payloads and groundsats.
Having a fast, efficient, open source implementation that works in GNU
Radio is a big step forward.

We are taking the entire setup with us to DEFCON. We are using a linux
computer and a USRP. Experiments so far have been on the VHF ham bands and
FM broadcast. Next step, move it up to microwave and demonstrate Phase 4
Ground channelization.

If you're at DEFCON, come by and see us in ham radio village! There's a
license exam session, demonstrations, presentations, and lots of
socializing.

More soon!
