     * \brief A graphical sink to display multiple signals in frequency.
     * \ingroup instrumentation_blk
     * \ingroup qtgui_blk
     *
     * \details
     * This is a QT-based graphical sink the takes set of a floating
     * point streams and plots the PSD. Each signal is plotted with a
     * different color, and the \a set_title and \a set_color
     * functions can be used to change the lable and color for a given
     * input number.
     *
     * Message Ports:
     *
     * - freq (input):
     *        Receives a PMT pair: (intern("freq"), double(frequency).
     *        This is used to retune the center frequency of the
     *        display's x-axis.
     *
     * - freq (output):
     *        Produces a PMT pair with (intern("freq"), double(frequency).
     *        When a user double-clicks on the display, the block
     *        produces and emits a message containing the frequency of
     *        where on the x-axis the user clicked. This value can be
     *        used by other blocks to update their frequency setting.
     *
     *        To perform click-to-tune behavior, this output 'freq'
     *        port can be redirected to this block's input 'freq' port
     *        to catch the message and update the center frequency of
     *        the display.
