Check out gqrx, it uses gnuradio behind the scenes and should do what
you want. It should be in the repos assuming your using something
like Debian or Ubuntu.

Hi, all--
I am new to gnuradio. I have an RTL+SDR module that includes a
mixer and a 100 MHz oscillator to tune 100 KHz to 1.7 GHz, with a
solid state switch and filters, using "R829T2 Tuner"--
this printed on a yellow tag--on a block called SDR.RTL 2832 UNIT.
I looked at the introductory information, but it is really no
help to me. I haven't coded anything in over 20 years, and then
in Pascal and BASIC, and I did look at Python some years ago,
but decided that anything that depended on specific indents was
not for me. I might add that I am now 81 years old. I did RF
engineering, not software, when I was employed.
I would really*really* like an on-screen GUI which would allow me
to see a spectrum of signals, tune to one and listen to it in CW,
SSB, NBFM or WBFM. If guiradio has such an app
pre-existing that will run on an rpm-based Linux machine, I would
like to have a copy, please. If only in DEB format, I will try to
convert it via alien.
If guiradio does not have such an app, do you folks know of any
Linux program that does? (I know that there are all sorts of
Windows programs, but I'm trying to avoid Windows and
all its keep-outs and problems.)
Thanx--doug
I should have said gnuradio, not guiradio. I've been recommended to
GQRX or sdrsharp.
Anyway, GQRX comes with dependency hell on PCLinuxOS, and sdrsharp is
not findable at all. (I'm looking at the site rpmfind.)
SDRSharp is windows-only.
Just looked at the repos for recent PCLOS. They've apparently
packaged Gnu Radio + friends, but NOT gqrx. Which is a bit odd these days.
But the people to complain to about that might be whoever the
packaging managers are for PCLOS.
