Thanks for your reply Alex,

I have both rtlsdr and osmsdr installed. The applications that I'm 
trying to get going both need either rtlsdr and or osmosdr python 
modules which aren't on my system. So I guessed that I have to build the 
modules, somehow.

I have gnuradio-companion installed but that looks even more 
unfathomable than trying to get a python application going.

Do you have a suggestion on how I might get something going using 
gnuradio-companion?
