FYI, some versions of libboost cause bugs/crashes in the valve.
Specifically (the last time I checked) the versions that come packaged with
ubuntu. Compiling from latest source does not have any issues (that I've
seen). Also, Stream-selector in place of a valve I've had less issues with.

Yes, valve is the block I was looking for. But, first
try did not turn
well: it works for a while, turning channels on and off, but after 10-100
switches something goes wrong and I get OOOOO. Experiments with dynamic
reconfiguration gave me the same results (+memory leak, is there way to
tell from python to release block memory after disconnect?). Maybe it's
related to threading, as I turn valves on/off from separate thread. I'll
try this again in some days.
Regarding the code: right not it's no more than a heap of proof-of-concept
python code not tightly connected to gnuradio. Gnuradio part consists of
application with multiple channels. Each channel is xlating fir ->
quadrature demod -> symbol filter -> fsk4_demod -> slicer -> frame
assembler --msg queue--> custom UDP sender (it adds frequency id to udp
packet).
And there are standalone python program which receives UDP frames and
stores it in db-like format. Further programs work on this files in pure
python.
I'll release code in some days after I clean it up a little.

Dmitry,
I'd suggest using a valve or stream selector for that. Do you have any
interest in sharing your source code?
Thanks,
Matt.

I'm writing multichannel p25 recorder. It mostly works (thanks to op25
team and other contributors). Is there any open documentation on control
channel messages, especially TSBK frames? I did trellis decoding and CRC
algorithm (reverse engineered the later, as I couldn't find parameters). I
understand structure of some messages, for example "Group Voice Channel
Grant Update" (opcode 02, manufacturer id 00), but many opcodes remain
unknown. Do you have any leads on this?
Also, I'm not very familiar with gnuradio, is there way to place some kind
of "gate" in flowgraph so some parts of it can be switched on/off by
external event? I want to use such feature to gate voice channels on/off
and do not waste processor cycles on filtering channels that do not carry
traffic at the moment.
Best regards,
Dmitry
