Since you know how to build from source, you're better off sticking with that. The trick to multiple installs is just to use -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX during the cmake step. For example: cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/gnuradio-3.7.14 ../ /opt is a better location than /usr/local since you can

Re: Proper use of stream, on a re-occuring event

Your approach isn’t horrible. I’d stick with it. Give that the USRP is sampling at a rate much faster than the transition event you’re describing, I’m wondering if perhaps you don’t really understand how a high-speed sampled baseband signal “works”. Your “can the USRP handle this” comment sugg

Hi, On an Ubuntu 18 system I would like to use multiple gnuradio+uhd instances in parallel (3.7 with python 2.7, 3.8 with python 3, and a variety of versions with patches applied, different UHD versions, RFnoc etc). So far, I have multiple source trees and when I switch I completely delete /us

Proper use of stream, on a re-occuring event

I need to be able to grab a couple of samples at after some time after a recurring event (step 2e below). The current method seems to work at the moment, but was wondering if there was a better way. I tried to read the documentation and example of proper use for this scenario, but I still do

Thank you Sylvain: as this is a new computer, I had not installed pulseaudio. It seems the "default" Alsa backend indeed drops frames. I installed pulseaudio and running in debug mode (-) I cannot see frame size updates but most importantly my records are now continuous, problems solved. Furth

Re: Sound card input & output synchronization ?

What audio backend are you using ? I know Pulse Audio / Alsa can just drop / duplicate samples. They try to reduce latency by adjusting some buffer size dynamically but those adjustments will cause discontinuities. You can for instance run pulse audio in debug mode and you'll see if / when it doe

Hi! Thanks for your reply. While I'll work on installing and working with GRC 3.8, I was just wondering will the over the air communication be bad enough to not even receive a single correct packet? Is it to do with loop_bw for FLL, PFB and Costas_Loop or the digital gain values (a multiply b

Nope, the Qt theme describes the Qt GUI widgets; GRC isn't affected by it (also, not Qt). On 18.05.20 23:26, Kyle A Logue wrote: > I think all these configs are inside the QT theme. > > In GRC -> Tools -> Set Default QT Theme > In $PYBOMBS_PREFIX/share/gnuradio/themes > > ***Kyle Logue* > /Senio
