Re: Missing the big picture
Since the SoapySDRUtil probe does find my device, I guessed there might be something wrong with my version of gqrx, so I used the instructions on this page to remove my old copy and install from there: http://gqrx.dk/download/install-ubuntu Now however when I invoke gqrx I get a complaint about a mi...

Re: Missing the big picture
GQRX (GnuRadio) need to communicate to the SoapySDR interface (not MSixxx). I don't see much information on that link you supplied, nothing that I can do. It just seems to be announcing the start of an unnamed project. I guess from the point of view of a user with limited programming abilities, the...

Re: Missing the big picture
OK, I went here https://github.com/pothosware/pothos/wiki/Ubuntu ...and followed that recipe, including installing that big mass of pothosware stuff. And I blacklisted the msi drivers.

Strangely when I ran that installation script, it reported no problems and said "Installing SoapySDRPlay... Installing SoapySDR... Finished." I guess it was lying. I did a "sudo a...

Re: Missing the big picture
I installed on the same machine I run my RTLSDR dongle on. When I invoked gqrx the first time I got a warning (don't recall exactly) that suggested I choose the device. I went to the "configure I/O devices", and the only selection that looked plausible was the Mirics MSI2500 which I chose. But the c...

Missing the big picture
I was previously using an RTLSDR with gnuradio and gqrx on Lubuntu 15.10. I went through the SDRplay "start here" process, somewhat mindlessly copying the commands without really knowing what was going on. Looking at my console it appears I have installed an API, SoapySDRPlay and SoapySDR. Not sure ...
