Hi Ellie, I'm one of the authors of gr-sigmf. You are correct, we haven't had a chance to port gr-sigmf to 3.8 yet, sorry about that. As for reading sigmf files in 3.8, it depends what you need, if you just need the data portion, you should be able to just use a normal file source with the sigmf-data file and read it that way, you can get the basic metadata of the dataset from the sigmf-meta file.
