Hi Harald
Thanks for clarifying this confusion. I bought a motorola C123 on ebay with RS232 data cable. When I arrive I'll try this fantastic software. Thank you very much for your work, this world needs more people like you

Its posible use OsmocomBB on C123 for do task as a USRP ? or similar scanner ?
No, I think you have some conceptual misunderstanding about radio technology in general.
In your subject you ask if OsmocomBB can work as USRP: This is wrong, as OsmocomBB is a protocol stack and radio driver, and the USRP is hardware. How can some software work as hardware?
In the body of your mail you ask if the C123 can act as USRP: No. The USRP is a wide-band software defined radio, and the Calypso/Iota/Rita design implements a more traditional narrow-band zero-if transceiver with a DSP in the baseband.
Nevertheless, you can use both hardware design to receive and transmit GSM signals. But this is very far from what you ask by "one device working like the other"
