+     - Visited the Anechoic chamber in the Electrical Engineering building on Busch Campus.
+     - Prepared our antenna and FPGA in the anechoic chamber and became familiar with the room. 
+     - Figured out a method that would allow us to precode our sync words, something we had previously not been able to do. Rather than 
+       exclude the sync words from our precoding, we simply replace the zeros in the sync words with random non-zero symbols, and then do the 
+       same calculations. In the end, we multiply by the original symbols anyway, which restores the original sync words. 
+     - Learned how to connect to the USRP’s, and transmit a signal over antenna and wire.
+     - Encountered many bizarre issues related to the USRP's in the lab. Experiments that had mostly worked previously on 
+       COSMOS Sandbox 2 were not working on the on-site USRP's.
