GQRX, Linux and RSP1A

Post by W1ABA » Sat Aug 11, 2018 2:06 am

I've been enjoying my new RSP1A immensely, thanks to a super above and beyond the call of duty by SDRPlay tech support. But, CubicSDR doesn't run well and has some problems that appear to be bugs (opinion of a newbie).

I'd like to run GQRX as I know it runs well from my experience with the RTL-SDR.

I'm trying to use the instructions from:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic ... kuR8uo4mv8

However, there is no rule in the udev folder for the sdrplay and I could use some help.

I'm using xubuntu 18.04.

The GQRX website lists this forum for GQRX support.

I think I need more basic instructions than the comments from Jo Schueth offers.

At this point, I'm not even sure if I should be following these instructions or whether I should be trying other procedures.

!!!!!! help !!!!!!

I have /etc/udev/rules.d/66-mirics.rules which contains this:

Code: Select all

SUBSYSTEM=="usb",ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device",ATTRS{idVendor}=="1df7",ATTRS{idProduct}=="2500",MODE:="0666"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb",ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device",ATTRS{idVendor}=="1df7",ATTRS{idProduct}=="3000",MODE:="0666"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb",ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device",ATTRS{idVendor}=="1df7",ATTRS{idProduct}=="3010",MODE:="0666"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb",ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device",ATTRS{idVendor}=="1df7",ATTRS{idProduct}=="3020",MODE:="0666"
This is on Ubuntu 18.04 with API 2.13.

Thanks DK7OB!

I created the file in /etc/udev/rules.d/, but it doesn't do any good. I'm sure I'm leaving out some necessary step during the install of gqrx.
