Hello Richard,

Did you try editing editing (or adding) udev rules and rebooting the system, or 
running GNU Radio as root (not recommended, but for testing purpose anyway)?


(I am not experienced with AirSpy HF+ dongles, but the udev rule would be 
something that I would suspect first in such situations.)


Regards,

Kyeong Su Shin

제목: [Discuss-gnuradio] AirSpy HF+ with GNU Radio and gr-osmosdr

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

Running GNU Radio:
I try to run a simple flowgraph in GNU Radio with an osmocom source connected 
to a WX gui FFT sink. The output is the following:

Generating: '/home/hedric/top_block.py'

    return _osmosdr_swig.source_make(*args, **kwargs)

Hopefully this is enough information for you, if not please let me know. I am 
by no means an advanced Linux user but still eager to learn.

Kind regards,
Richard
