Subject: Re: [op25-dev] TX Support

Should be straightforward to sectionalize this problem but will need your help - we'll assume for the moment there's been no regression (bug introduced). If your HackRF has not been stabilized (using GPSDO or other), I'd guess there could be a frequency-offset error between TX and RX - probably sufficent to cause RX failure.

Can you run one of the RX apps (rx.py or multi_rx.py) and enable the "datascope" (eye pattern diagram), and attach a copy of that plot...

Hey there,

I was testing the P25 Tx support of OP25 with a hackrf but I am encountering strange behavior.

I am able to transmit "something" with the hackrf using the cmd:

./dv_tx.py -p p25 --args 'hackrf' -f ./test.wav -Q 145000000 -q 0 --gains 'RF:0,IF:20'

On SDR# (img: https://ibb.co/C58Q592) I am getting signal so something is being transmitted but the squelch won't open. Even when disabling squelch I am getting a signal (that seems distorted/noisy), check at DSD+ Source Audio window (img: https://ibb.co/mJJy3J0). I tried lowering the gain but the signal is still "noisy" so I figured I would ask the experts over here.

Thanks
