Hi,
I am trying to use a limeSDR mini, via UHD/Soapy on OSX, and using tx_samples_from_file:
./tx_samples_from_file --file sample.bin --type short --rate 2500000 --freq 1575420000 --gain 20 --repeat
It starts up, but then I get this:

Can any LimeSDR Mini gurus help? (Or maybe it is a UHD/Soapy Guru?)
