Good morning, I have been trying to get Gnuradio up and and running all weekend
on either a Macbook Pro or a System 76 Ubuntu 12.04 machine but have not had
any success. If I understand correctly, Ubuntu 12.04 is not supported so I
have not pursued that much but focused on the Macbook Pro.
When I try to run gnuradio-companion on the Mac, I initially get 'The xterm
executable “ is missing’. When I search for gnu radio.conf, the file doesn’t
seem to be on the computer.
Then when I run a simple flow(RTL-SDR Source -> WX GUI FFT Sink), i get a
python error of no module named osmosdr.
Then I tried the Live DVD. Trying both from DVD and from USB Flashdrive. On
both the System 76 and the Mac hardware, I get the same issue.
I have an RTL-SDR device and I believe the program is recognizing the device
because it says Rafael Tuner 820; however, it then says PLL won’t lock. I have
tried multiple FM broadcast frequencies; as well as, AM broadcast frequencies.
On the FM, I’m inputting values of 101.1e06 for example. On the AM I input
108e04 as an example(1080 on am dial is the intended target in that case).
I also have a SDRplay but can’t get that to connect at all. Looks like if you
don’t have a Windows machine, that doesn’t seem to work well yet. Guessing
drivers or something on SDRplay side.
Any help is greatly appreciated. For right now, I’m just wanting to get it up
and running in any way possible.
