as you can see, gain increased when TX is turned on.
However, it seems that benchmark_rx.py cannot catch those
signals.

======================================================
it stops here and prints *NOTHING* whenever I set tx-gain and rx-gain
with about 30 dB and 50 dB.
My assumption is that a demodulator does not consider signals as
data.
Rather than, they are considered as noise whose signal strength is
too weak compared to a certain threshold
which distinguish meaningful data and noise
Is my assumption is right?
Still I am curious because this situation occurs with very high
tx-gain and rx-gain, also.
