Gr-air-modes - what dependencies?

alcina · September 17, 2013, 3:19pm

Hi,

When I want to install gr-air-modes, what dependencies are needed, what
gnuradio-version? Should it work with 3.7? It does not compile on my
machine, with some not very meaningful error message…can post it later
when back at home.

Or what else is recommended for ADS-B / Mode-S, when having gnuradio 3.7
/
gr-osmosdr / uhd and an USRP1 and a bladeRF available? I have an
airport
(NUE) almost in sight, and when tuning a hand scanner with rubber duck
to
1030 resp. 1090 MHz AM, I can hear lots of requests and answers just
with my
plain ears, so it really should work to decode at least something.

With best regards

Ralph.

Aah, some googling showed me that I need to select gnuradio-3.7 branch.
Guess this will fix it.

Hi Ralph,

Yes, pyBombs installs the latest GNU Radio 3.7 master branch by default,
as
does running ‘build-gnuradio -m’.

Hi Ralph,

I’ve found that the following prevents issues building gr-air-modes.

In ‘pybombs/templates/cmake.lwt’, change:

make -j4

to:

make -j1

Mike

Keep in mind you should be using the next branch of gr-air-modes as it
has
been ported over to 3.7 while master hasn’t. It also has lots of new
development – it’ll get merged into master sometime this week or next.

Hi,

I deleted the folder, did a fresh “git clone . -b next”, the usual cmake
make stuff, and I think that the make process looks normal, but starts
over
and over again when I repeat it. It produces some output, but it does
not
run.

Here some output from building and running it:
