Hi all,

I’m fairly new to Gnuradio. I’ve been trying to install BBN receiver on  
Gnuradio 3.6 and I’ve been getting errors of missing files like  
“omnithread.h” and others. I’m not going to get into the details of the  
issue here. I just want to ask those who were able to use it: Is it  
possible to install it on newer version of Gnuradio?

–  
Thank you

In my opinion, it’s easier to move back to 3.2.2 than revise the BBN  
code.

Can this project only be installed and run in 3.2.2 or lower version?  
I use 3.2.2,and when I run bbn\_80211b\_tx.py,it tells that"Cannot import  
name blks".Do you have an idea how to solve it??  
Thank u so much!!

Hi, I haven’t run the bbn-code with gnuradio 3.6 but I did with 3.3. The  
omnitreads aren’t used anymore so try to include pthread instead. I  
believe it will be possible to get it running.
