Andrew – Thanks for the help. Given that, sounds like the bbr file isn’t what we are looking for after all. I didn’t realize that the zero span outputted a different format though, looks like that might work. I just collected a file and here is some of the XML output:

…
<DataType>Complex Short</DataType>
…
<SampleRate>1250000</SampleRate>
<Decimation>32</Decimation>
<IFBandwidth>1000000</IFBandwidth>
<ScaleFactor>1</ScaleFactor
…

Could you clarify a couple things for me though? So that mean the data is unsigned 16-bit precision (u16 versus signed 16, u/s 32, etc), sampled at 1250ksamples right? What about machine format (i.e. endian-ness big/little/etc)?

Again, thank you for the support.
