SDRplay Community Forum

Hi all,

My goal is to connect the sdrplay to a raspberry pi and have the pi decode aprs packets. I can do this on windows and I have this working with the cheap dongles by running rtl_fm and piping the output of that into direwolf. I've seen on here that some people may have got some of the rtl_sdr software working with the SDRplay, but I have no such success trying to follow posts. When I run rtl_test -t it can't see the SDRPlay. I've installed the SDRPlay api and compiled the rtl software among many other things I've tried.

Does anyone here have such a setup working and if so can you give me some more details of what you did?

Thanks

You cannot use the rtl applications on the RSP, but we have adapted them to support the RSP - you will find play_sdr here: https://github.com/SDRplay/examples - you can use the same techniques on the other rtl applications.

If you need specific help coding for the RSP you can either ask here or drop me an email at software@sdrplay.com and we'll help you as much as we can.

Best regards,

SDRplay Support
