Hi, I understand but sourcing the setup_env.sh file isn't working for me unfortunately at this time. Previously on a different machine this was what seemed to have solved the issue. I did use PyBOMBS for installation, this is the exact sequence of commands: sudo pip install PyBOMBS pybombs recipes add gr-recipes git+https://github.com/ gnuradio/gr-recipes.git pybombs recipes add ettus git+https://github.com/ EttusResearch/ettus-pybombs.git pybombs prefix init ~/rfnoc -R rfnoc source ~/rfnoc/setup_env.sh
and gnuradio using apt-get install...
