+ 1. Q: '''For each team's receive node in the DARPA Spectrum Challenge tournaments, will the USRP SBX daughtercard have an antenna connected to the "TX/RX" port, the "RX2" port or both?''' [[BR]]
+    A: Each node has both antennas attached as shown in the image below. [[BR]] [[Image(wiki:Hardware/fDevices/gUSRP:SBX Antenna Placement.jpg,width=200, title="SBX Antenna Mounting", caption="SBX Antenna Mounting")]] 
  1. Q: '''I realize that the configuration is referred to as "tentative", but I am hoping to receive confirmation for the USRP2's tagged as Team A and Team B as to whether they are the transmitter or receiver.'''[[BR]]
     A: Each team gets two nodes with transmitter in the lower-left corner and receiver in the upper-right corner (tournament node assignment figure below). Please note that '''only''' transmitters are allowed to draw packets from the packet server and that '''only''' receivers nodes are allowed to submit packets to the packet server for scoring. The team nodes are:

  1. Q: '''We just want to make absolutely certain what those constraints are in terms of physical hardware specs so that when we log into ORBIT to test our designs, we know if we're using the "target" systems that will be used in the tournament. We also want to make certain that all teams in a cooperative or competitive match will have *identical* hardware for their pairs of transceivers so that all teams are operating under identical constraints.'''

-    A: Both cooperative and competitive matches will have identical hardware (i.e. [wiki:Hardware/hNodes/cNodeVer3/aMain/bLV67G#LV-67 GLV-67G based] nodes with USRP N210 and SBX). The actual nodes that will be used for the tournament are shown in Figure 1. Also, the nodes in SB2, SB3 and SB7 are identical to the tournament nodes in the grid and are intended for code development and testing.
