The Multi-USRP class provides a FAT interface to a single USRP with
one or more channels, or multiple USRPs in a homogeneous setup.
See the documentation in *usrp/multi_usrp.hpp* for reference.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Integrating custom hardware
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Creators of custom hardware can create drivers that use the UHD API.
-These drivers can be built as dynamically loadable modules that the UHD will load at runtime.
-
-For a module to be loaded at runtime, it must be:
-
-* found in the UHD_MODULE_PATH environment variable,
-* installed into the <prefix>/share/uhd/modules directory,
-* or installed into /usr/share/uhd/modules directory (unix only).

-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Custom motherboard
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Create a new device driver when the driver in lib/usrp/
-cannot support your custom FPGA or hardware modifications.
-Make a copy of the relevant driver code in lib/usrp/, make mods, and rename the class.
-The new device code should register itself into the discovery and factory system.
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Custom daughterboard
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Use code from an existing daughterboard in lib/usrp/dboard/* as an example.
-Your daughterboard code should subclass an rx dboard, rx dboard, or xcvr dboard;
-and it should respond to calls to get and set properties.
-The new daughterboard code should register itself into the dboard manager
-with a unique rx and/or tx 16 bit identification number.
