Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] GNUradio not working with SDRplay in Windows10

[Arie Kleingeld PA3A]

Hello Marcus, Martin,

Thank you for your prompt response. Here's the story in short:

My system: Windows 10 on a I7-6700 with lots of memory.
I installed  GNURadio_3.7.10.1_win64 (for Windows) first. Osmocom-source is included that package.
Results: OK, I can make sounds by using an internal source in gnuradio,  etc.

Then I installed the SDRUNO software (an SDR program for use with the SDRPlay). Then plugged in the SDRplay.
Result: Working OK, as it should. Good shortwave reception, as well as VHF.

Making the last step: GNURadio and the SDRPlay hardware.
No way I can make it work. The feedback from GNURadio is below. It seems that it cannot find the SDRPlay.

I have visited many sites, including the one Marcus suggested, sdr.osmocom.org
Despite the fact that it looks to me that's all about Linux (now very little of that) and not Windows, I found the words 'API driver for windows' and downloaded it from the SDRPlay site and installed it. 
Result: still not working.

I'm stuck :(
Hence my question.

Kind regards,

Arie

Arie,

can you please provide more info on your platform, what you've tried so
far, and how that failed.
