We've been waiting a long time for an interface into Gnuradio.</div><div><br></div><div>For those who aren't familiar, Gnuradio is an open source software radio "kit" with a GUI interface and the ability to create a working SDR application purely by drag-and-dropping finction blocks on the screen and "wiring" them together. With it, we can easily use our HPSDR hardware for a new range of experiments and applications.</div><div><br></div><div>73,</div><div>John<br><br>On Nov 16, 2012, at 10:01 PM, Tom McDermott <<a href="mailto:tom.mcdermott4@yahoo.com">tom.mcdermott4@yahoo.com</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><div></div><blockquote type="cite"><div><span>***** High Performance Software Defined Radio Discussion List *****</span><br><span></span><br></div></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><div><div style="color:#000; background-color:#fff; font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:12pt"><div style="RIGHT: auto">An alpha-version of a Gnuradio module for Hermes/Metis is available in the SVN repository.</div>

<div style="RIGHT: auto">You will need to build the gnruradio Hermes module from the source (easy).</div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto"> </div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto">The build instruction are very similar to building gnuradio, and instructions are in the top trunk/N5EG directory.</div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto"> </div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto">The gr-hpsdr directory contains the source, SVN->Checkout gr-hpsdr directory and contents to your Linux system.</div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto"> </div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto">This has been tested with Gnuradio 3.6.2 and Ubuntu 12.04.</div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto"> </div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto">The initial code provides receive-only operation, one receiver only, can set receive sample rate, receive frequency, and turn the receive preamp on and off. I'm assuming that Metis works the same as Hermes, but can only test Hermes. The host Ethernet interface is hard-coded to "eth0" in this version.</div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto"> </div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto">In the grc_applications directory, two demo apps show how to interact with the Hermes module. </div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto">The SSB receiver app provides the ability to select upper/lower sideband, turn the preamp on/off, set the receive frequency and the receive sample rate (48000, 96000, or 192000). The AGC works poorly - it's hard to make a good audio-only AGC! The receiver works fine.</div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto"> </div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto">The GUI app shows how to connect the QT GUI (spectrum analyzer, time-domain, and constellation-domain) viewers to the app.</div>
