Thanks Geof. I'm happy to report it installed properly (I checked and my
i7-4500u does have AVX2) and I was able to run the spectrum scanner (FFT)
with my RTL-SDR. Unfortunately I was not able to use GRC to generate a QT
scope of the RTL-SDR. It just hung at "generating python code" I believe.
It got too late to investigate but will try again tomorrow.

Nonetheless, thank you very much. I literally tried for probably 8+ hours
over the course of a week to do what your script was able to accomplish in
about 10 mins.
