clk_miss, for instance, is a receiver parameter, while clk_post is a 
transmitter parameter. There are relationships between the transmitter and 
receiver parameters in the sense that they have to be compatible, and we may 
want to compute one set of parameters based on the other one, but I think they 
target RX and TX separately.
