gr-radio-astronomy is old, old, old, old, and you shouldn't use it as a
guide for anything these days.
Generally, you don't need to care about what the actual boards are.
If you use the UHD interface, the daughter-cards are abstracted for the
most part, and the bulk of your flow-graph
doesn't need to care.
In one of my flow-graphs, I use uhd_usrp_probe external to the
flow-graph to determine tuning ranges and gain ranges, and
pass this on to downstream "stuff". But in general, your DSP
flow-graph doesn't need to care that much. You have a UHD source,
it produces samples, you do stuff with those samples. The only time
you really care that much is to set limits on things like
Frequency and Gain GUI inputs, etc. And I tend to just use a
shell-script wrapper around uhd_usrp_probe to get params that I
just pass into the flow-graph on startup.
