Greetings:
My installation consists of: a) OSX 10.9 or 10.7 b) gnuradio 3.7.x installed
through mac ports, c) osmosdr (because of its support for SDR-IQ within gnu
radio companion) installed through mac ports.
My goal is to use SDR-IQ within gnu radio companion but wanted to proceed in
smaller steps, the least of which, I was told, was to use gqrx or osmosdr_fft.
I started with 10.9 and, as per FTDI instruction, removed Apple's serial driver
(the rationale being, I think, to avoid conflict with port access elsewhere). I
then proceeded to install the D2XX libraries from FTDI with the expectations
that
something like gqrx would work. It did not, as it kept expecting /dev/tttyUSB,
which did not exist (I believe that D2XX, provides, somehow, direct access to
the USB port). Somebody suggested directly setting DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES such
that gqrx would find them. On 10.9 I have also tried to connect SDRDx through
SDR-xx Server, all to no avail.
I had then repeated this experiment on a 10.7 machine and SDRDx was working
through the SDR-xx Server and I could connect a 10.9 SDRDx client to the 10.7
SDR-xx Server. gqrx does not work on 10.7 however.
As I wrote above my goal is to connect the SDR-IQ directly to the machine that
runs 10.9 and to use osmosdr's block as a source within gnu radio companion.
At this point I do not know how to further proceed.
Any ideas or clarifications on misunderstandings I may have about what I am
trying to achieve appreciated!
Thank you,
Alex
