- To build docker image:
docker build -t gqrx . - To build gr-osmosdr: https://skywavelinux.com/gqrx-spyserver-client.html - Take note that you need to use a forked repo that has support for airspy, airspyhf, and spyserver client:
git clone https://github.com/racerxdl/gr-osmosdr - Use https://discourse.myriadrf.org/t/starter-guide-gqrx-gnuradio3-7-soapy-gr-osmo-full-working-ubuntu-18-04/6151 to see which ubuntu packages to install to start the compile. It will be missing a few
apt install libairspy-devtype packages. You want to make sure that airspy, airspyhf, soapy&, and spyserver are all enabled after doing the cmake. If not, keepapt install XXXthe lib*-dev packages until it works. - To start pulseaudio receiving daemon on os x - take note of the auth-anonymous=1 argument passed to the module. This allows for any user to send audio to the server and is required to pass audio from the container:
pulseaudio --load="module-native-protocol-tcp auth-anonymous=1" --exit-idle-time=-1 --daemon - To establish pulseaudio tunnel:
ssh -R 24713:localhost:4713 root@localhost -p 2222 - To start gqrx from within xterm spawned from within Xquartz:
ssh root@localhost -p 2222thenPULSE_SERVER="tcp:localhost:24713" gqrx - When you start gqrx you will see all the modules it supports. If you have compiled gr-osmosdr or used the binary in the repo, uninstalled the one that comes with the container
apt remove gr-osmosdr, you will get output that lists all the modules supported. You need to see airspy, airspyhf, and spyserver.
