Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Units of data saved by filesink

Arbitrary counts, relative to what your Device and the attached DSP you
or the device are doing considers full scale.

I have been working on a flowgraph (attached) that will allow me to process and save data samples from an Ettus SDR (which is plugged in to a different computer -- the data is streamed over via a TCP socket). I am using a metadata filesink for this, and am curious to know, what are the units in which the data is saved? I.e., when I open the binary data file using a separate python program (such as the one attached), and plot the data as an averaged spectrum, what will the units on the y-axis be -- some actual physical unit, or an arbitrary counts unit?
