IWR1443: Transmitting a single frequency

Part Number: IWR1443

Hello,

I wanted to check if there was an easy way to transmit a single frequency using the mmw demo firmware.

What I did is, in the profileCfg, I changed the freqSlopeConst to 0 so:

profileCfg 0 77 916 7 57.14 0 0 0 1 240 4884 0 0 30

The chip is able to accept this configuration but I wasn't sure if it's actually transmitting 77GHz (haven't had a chance to test in lab).

Do you see any issues with this?

Here is the full CFG just in case you need it:
