Martin et. al., The fix that makes this block work for us in any scenario, is to add a break statement at the end of every case statement (don't allow the fall through's to happen). This leads me to believe the source of the issues comes from the way offsets are calculated between states within o

It is. I plan on running the output through a utility that can decode it. However, before that can happen I need to find out how I can get a clear reception of the broadcast. On Jun 1, 2015 4:15 PM, "Marcus Müller" wrote: > I'm a bit confused, I though POCSAG was a text pager system? > > On 06/01

Hi again, Ok, I'm not familiar with the standard POCSAG, but if you got a signal that you still need to decode with something else, how do you know you don't get clear reception? What is your measure for "good reception"? As far as I read the English wikipedia, POCSAC uses a 4.5kHz binary FSK, so

You're right in that I need more than GR. The audio of a pocsag broadcast is very distinct. It's also clearly visible on a waterfall. The problem is that I have too much static in there. Way too much noise. I can't get the gqrx module (where I tune and see the waterfall) set right so the reception

Hi!

I am sure GR can do that, but I can't ;-) Also, I don't have a good waterfall at all of the pocsag broadcast, which is probably part of why I can't make it out with my ears either. Yes, I think I have too much noise. I hope it can be overcome with the right settings and filters. I'll try to captur

Hey Frank, multi_usrp is exactly what the GNU Radio blocks use under the hood. However, multi_usrp is *not* SWIGged -- which means you can't access multi_usrp from Python. I believe that's what's triggering your error message. get_device() can only be called on your USRP blocks using C++. Now, if
