Gr-airmodes with gnuradio. gr-osmosdr and bladerf

Hi,

gr-airmodes, gr-osmosdr, gnuradio and bladerf all with latest versions,
built directly from the repo.

modes_rx works just fine, the messages come through.

modes_gui throws this error, when switching insinde the gui to osmosdr:

The bladerf is flashed with latest fx3 image and latest fpga file into
the SPI flash.

All the involved packages itself work just fine.

Any ideas what there may be wrong?

Does osmocom_fft work?

Yes, works just fine, also other toolchains like gqrx gr-osmosdr
bladerf do not show any strange effects, so osmosdr seems to be OK.

I’ve only tested osmocom in gr-air-modes with the HackRF. The relevant
code
is in python/radio.py lines 177-189. modes_gui does reinstantiate the
source block a couple of times (to populate the options boxes) – it’s
possible that this isn’t allowing gr-osmocom enough time to close/open
the
USB device, or maybe gr-osmocom doesn’t like reopening the device from
within the same process?

Im afraid I am not a programmer, so I do not know if I can find
something there, but I will have l look later or tomorrow J

Just as a note, I also did not get the gui to work with my USRP1, the
error messages are different, but at least it did not receive.

Ive used it quite lot with a variety of dongles, funcube and hackrf.
They
all work for me with variations on gain needed to produce reliable
results.
I did not try the interfaces to other programs such as google maps. I
found
that dump1090 gave me better data.
