Forum: GNU Radio An FFT base xlating filter

I just watched Tom Rondeau's presentation at TAPR online and learned 
about
the benefits of an FFT filter over a FIR filter. I am wondering if there 
is
a good way to replace my XLATING FIR Filters with FFT ones. I do need to 
be
able to move the center frequency around?

You can separate the translation from the filter and use complex
multiplication with a sine wave, where the frequency of the sine wave
corresponds to the translation offset.

Hi,I also want to watch the presentation. Can you please mail the web 
link from which I can watch it.

Thanks Alex,

I will give that a try. Your website is what helped me get on the
air initially in the 2 meter band. Thanks for posting.

You're welcome. By the way, can you tell me approximately where Tom
talks about the FFT filter? I didn't have time to watch the whole show
but I am interested in that FFT filter too.

i downloaded the example my-basic which making as an amplifier and i try 
to
install this module using commands:

$ sudo ./bootstrap
$ sudo ./configure
$ cd swig
$ sudo make generate-makefile-swig
$ cd ..
$ sudo make
$ sudo make install

but i face problem during sudo make step

First of all, don't run all of those commands using 'sudo'. It's unsafe 
and
pretty crude. You only need to run 'sudo make install' because you're
likely to be installing into a path that you don't own or can write to 
as a
user.

This error is due to a version conflict. The gruel_common.i file was
misplaced originally and has since been moved under 'gruel/src/swig'.

You can either edit the code to look in the right place for this file, 
or
figure out what version of GNU Radio this program was written against.
