     * The source block also provides API calls for receiver settings.
     * See also gr::uhd::usrp_block for more public API calls.

     * RX Stream tagging:

     * The following tag keys will be produced by the work function:
     *  - pmt::string_to_symbol("rx_time")
     *
     * The timestamp tag value is a pmt tuple of the following:
     * (uint64 seconds, and double fractional seconds).
     * A timestamp tag is produced at start() and after overflows.

     * \section uhd_rx_command_iface Command interface
