Hi Aaron
This is an impressive work. Thank you for your efforts.
Could it be possible to add to your software collection some Open HPSDR softwares ? SparkSDR, LinHPSDR , newbie config files for GQRX, HPSDR "recipe" for GNU Radio , piHPSDR -which is not only "raspi" compliant- etc ? It would be a nice opportunity for people who don't necessary want to "buy" commercial stuff and prefere to build their own radio. Without mentionning the impressive number of hpsdr compliant rigs...
LinRad could also be a "must have".
These are just suggestions. Thanks again for this gift you gave to the SDR community

Thank you for the feedback and sorry i didnt see any of the posts sooner. I'll have to chrck my settings. As for your suggestions, you've given me a few things to research. I hope to add some of what you mention into either DragonOS 10 or LTS, hopefully i can maintain both.

It's only radio... nothing is urgent
And it was just a suggestion. If you consider the ratio of ham able to use Linux AND who own a software defined radio AND know what an OpenHPSDR protocol is , you'll see that this proportion is approximately the same of the amount of ham able to compile from source :- D
And once againt, thanks for your efforts and contribution to the community

In fact, the « usability » problem comes from GNU Radio itself. It's a rather hard-to-understand/hard-to-build and install/hard-to-use piece of software, and you definitely could not use it if you don't have some knowledge in the « signal theory ».
The main dificulty it the possibility to add the hardware interface you need (in this case, the openhpsdr « source » for example). This aspect has been partly solved with an kind of automatic install procedure called « pybombs » https://github.com/gnuradio/pybombs
in Pybombs, hardware platforms are supervised by a sort of « hardware install tool » called the « recipe », a simple list of sdr « lib ». You just need to pickup the right platform within this list to use it in GRC, or simply patch the recipe file and add a link to the github repository holding the platform code you need (if you have the chance to find the « right » fork working for your own rig)
In a perfect n00b world, a Linux distro should come with an already installed GNU-Radio environment using pybombs, and not a simple ppa or github link reserved to « command prompt pundits ». But I doubt it could be done easily
Once again, excuse my first answer, wich was really too eliptic to be understood
Cheers

Hi
It will enable any capabilities you intend to add using GRC and/or any python code.... But by itself, it's only a grc « source » written by Tom-McDermott (as far as I can remember). It is able to open several « receivers » (well... depending on the capabilities of your local computer).
Many forks have been added to fit with other hpsdr hardware platforms. Im using Daniel Estevez 's gr-HermesLite2 https://github.com/daniestevez/gr-hermeslite2 and it works flawlessly.
