Note that unlike the other qtgui sinks, this one does not support multiple input streams. We have yet to figure out a good way to display multiple, independent signals on this kind of a plot. If there are any suggestions or examples of this, we would love to see them. Otherwise, to display multiple signals here, it's probably best to sum the signals together and connect that here.
;Axis Labels
:default: 'Yes'
:options: ['Yes', 'No']


Most of the parameters are the same as the [[QT GUI Frequency Sink]]
