SDRplay on Ubuntu, RuntimeError

Post by jrodh » Thu Jul 18, 2019 11:16 pm

Hi,

I have installed Ubuntu on my surface pro 4 and followed all of the steps in the "GNU radio workflow with ready made source blocks" document. The installation went fine. My SDRplay is listed when using the "lsusb" command as well. I also have the source block for the RSP1 in GNU Radio Companion as well. The problem is that it says that "RuntimeError: Failed to open SDRplay device" when I try to execute the flow graph. I have added pictures of the error and my source block setup.

With a bandwidth of 1.536 MHz, I would start with a sample rate of 2 MHz, otherwise if you really want 10 MHz sample rate, change the IFBW to 8 MHz

I would also enable debug and see what the error reports

Best regards,
