Due to GNU Radio being (mostly) Linux only, Linux-based operation system is needed. All implementation and testing were done on Ubuntu 8.10 and 9.04. Other variants should work, but no guarantees.

Items needed for the entire system to operate:

1. USRP
2. Computer with Linux OS (Ubuntu preferred)
3. SDR Transceiver software

Download the tarball at: 

https://sourceforge.net/projects/sdr/

or you can check out the svn repository for specific/individual files at:

http://sdr.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/sdr/

Then put the files in a folder somewhere, such as desktop or in your home folder. Go into command prompt, locate the folder, then type ./gui.py or similar Python commands to start the software.

If you run into permission issues, such as "bash: ./gui.py: Permission denied," then in command prompt type chmod +x gui.py. Now try to run the Python file again.

SDR Transceiver is under GNU General Public License. Using common sense, it means the software is absolutely free. If you are going to use specific lines or entire sections of code, be courteous and provide credit where it is due (that would be us).

If you are reading this in Windows, please use wordpad, not notepad due to notepad having formatting issues with this and every other file.
