Hello, First of all, this is my first post on a mailing list and i apologize if this is the wrong place to ask this kind of question.
After having spent almost a full work week on getting the AirSpy HF+ to work with GNU Radio i thought it was time to post here. It feels like i have searched everywhere; different mailing lists, forums, AirSpy support along with their github and the web in general. I have tried installing GNU Radio using pybombs following the guide: https://www.gnuradio.org/blog/pybombs-the-what-the-how-and-the-why I have tried installing GNU Radio following the guide by Alexandru Csete: http://gqrx.dk/download/install-ubuntu I have tried building and installing: https://github.com/airspy/airspyone_host https://github.com/airspy/airspyhf *The AirSpy HF+ works with:* SDR# under Windows 10 GQRX under the Ubuntu system below I does however not work with GNU Radio under Linux which is were i intend to use the HF+. *My system info (Dell Latitude 7480):* - Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS (full installation on a USB-stick) - 4.15.0-34-generic #37-Ubuntu SMP Mon Aug 27 15:21:48 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux - 16 GB RAM - Intel Core i7 7600U *Output of: dmesg | grep usb* [ 7243.420121] usb 1-2: new high-speed USB device number 13 using xhci_hcd [ 7243.569041] usb 1-2: New USB device found, idVendor=03eb, idProduct=800c [ 7243.569052] usb 1-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 [ 7243.569060] usb 1-2: Product: AIRSPY HF+ [ 7243.569067] usb 1-2: Manufacturer: www.airspy.com [ 7243.569074] usb 1-2: SerialNumber: AIRSPYHF SN:3652A98094C73FA0 *Output of: airspy_info* airspy_lib_version: 1.0.9 airspy_open() board 1 failed: AIRSPY_ERROR_NOT_FOUND (-5) *Running GNU Radio:* I try to run a simple flowgraph in GNU Radio with an osmocom source connected to a WX gui FFT sink.
