One of big reasons I think that people struggle with GNURadio is that
is jams so many different fields of expertise into one package.
1. Digital Comms people (aka the Maths people) cannot program
themselves out of a wet paper bag, for the most part. This is what I
have seen in industry and academia.
2. Software people get lost in all the digital comm and signal
processing lingo. While they can program, they really don't understand
what each block actually does.
3. Hardware people also get lost in the digital comm stuff, and also
some of the software. However, they tend to be less confused than the
'maths' people on the programming aspect
