I am trying to record a Phase 1 P25 Trunking systems. I have a bunch of OP25 records hooked up to the different channels that the system could use. I have a Valve in the flow graph that will allow samples to pass or dump them to a null_sink. This lets me turn P25 recorders on or off.
The problem is that the recorders using OP25 seem to using a ton of CPU even if they are not getting samples. I tracked it down to the p25_frame_assembler block. Whenever it is connected to a flow graph, it seems to be using a lot of CPU, even if it is not getting any samples.
Any ideas why the p25_frame_assembler block would be using CPU cycles even if it is not getting samples in?
I am running it with the following params:
bool do_imbe = 1;
bool do_output = 1;
bool do_msgq = 0;
bool do_audio_output = 1;
bool do_tdma = 0;
Ok I know I asked this before but im still stuck, why when I launch op25_25.PY I just get the waterfall app, im using the black rtl sdr how do I tell it to tune o a frequency?
Where could I find the op25.grc file and just run op25 in gnu radio companion?
Yea I know, I suck, I ask alot of dumb questions , but im tryin!
Cant wait for the live cd to come out!
Im sorry im not fluent or able with some of the commands, people are made and not born, I have an interest in the project thats why I joined and want to learn more about this stuff
Could anybody walk me through how to use scope
I sourced the envronment
Ran scope with all the parameters for rtl sdr
The program script s tarts but then nothing happens , what could I be doing wrong?
When I run scope, the script executes but nothing happens
Ive entered all the parmeters for rtl sdr and run the env setup
Doi need gnu rafio running in the same shell?
Sorry, entering the command lne arguments and parameters is where im struggling, what could I enter for a command if I wanted to listen to 139.5600?

Tell me this - what
frequency did you tell it to tune to using the command
line arguments?
Does the line that says "[R820T] PLL not
locked for 3570434 Hz!" give you
any
hints as to what may have gone wrong?
As has been suggested, check out the command
line arguments before running
the
program.

When I open waterfall i get the following pasted below in terminal, and the waterfall doesnt do anything, do I have to open grc in terminal first somehow?thankssean
