Krys, Excellent, I like the approach of wrapping the code so it can be used by more than just gnuRadio. If you're too busy I can attempt to build the 'wrapper'.
On your webpage, you mention having some GPS data, do you mind sending it thru email to me. If you want I can let you upload to my ftp, just let me know so I can send account info to only you. Dave Bengtson is finishing up a schematic for a frontend using MAX 2745. I'm helping with the layout and hopefully we can have something this year... Without all the specs, it is hard to estimate how well or if the dbsrx can acquire GPS. It would be nice to be able to slap on a GPS antenna that includes a LNA (20-26 dB gain?). But with an 'active' antenna we need to hook up a dc bias. Can this be done easily, ideas? Not sure if the PCB antenna will cut it. I'm sure in the coming days we will get the details we need for dbsrx, which will be needed before releasing the coin :) Maybe I can help develop some WAAS code or has someone already done this too? Thanks for all the info. I'll have fun looking thru kkGPS.

Specifically the GPS page. http://comsec.com/wiki?GlobalPositioningSystem I have some code for software GPS at http://www.kamieniecki.com/krys/gps/ My project has been sidetrack by a contract project I am working on using GNURadio. At this point I have decided on a way to integrate my existing GPS code with GNURadio so that the few people who are using my code to process raw data do not have to use GNURadio. I have created a GNURadio block that wraps my GPS signal generator. The next step is to create a block that wraps my GPS Correlator, and then a block that wraps my low level GPS Receiver (a set of synchronized Correlators with a state machine controllers to track the signals from the various GPS satellites) I ordered the dbsrx with the hope that at least to possibility of getting realtime GPS signal data may spur me on.
