Knock knock knock... awfully quiet around here for 1 year + seems...
Any updates on OP25 Boatbod and Python3 etc.... I know there was some work being done to get things back up to to speed ......
Any updates on that Python 3 for *buntu 20.04+ and I guess still Python2 on RasPI's/Raspbian at least????
My OP25's on PI's hum along doing what they need, but I like to put some of these on newer *buntu boxes ie: 20.04 ESR for some things... testing, etc...
Looking forward to any updates??? Where things are in re this.

Ughhhh..... Thats too bad, I do not use that site. Oh well. Thanks.... :( :( :( :(
OP25 Boatbod fully supports python3 and ubuntu 20.04 with scripted install (~/op25/install.sh) and has done so for quite some time now. The installation script will autodetect python2/python3 and gnuradio-2.7/gnuradio-2.8 but at this point it's not handling gr2.9. The multi_rx.py version of the application now supports radio id tagging (rid-tags.tsv) if that is important to you.
Over on RR Forum Max has a thread about the new OP25 Osmocom release that has a new-look GUI and back end logging database.

Is that *bunu 18.04 and Raspbian I bet???
The multi_rx.py version of the application now supports radio id tagging (rid-tags.tsv) if that is important to you.
Is there something that outlines this multi-rx v. rx.py??? I've never touch mutli-rx.py, as never even knew about, most everything lists rx.py... HOWTO etc. on use like I've seen and used for rx.py .... RID tagging would be of interest! Does that RID get passed as metadata for IceCast streams by chance? ? ?
Over on RR Forum Max
Well thats great, but like I said, I don't use that site, ever, for anything. Thanks though.
has a thread about the new OP25 Osmocom release that has a new-look GUI and back end logging database.
Will keep an eye out for an announcement here, interesting, has some pluses feature wise it sounds like, but I need more of run in screen, set and forget it.

No need to subscribe to or register on that site to view the threads. There is in fact a beta version released a month or so ago - when (in our judgement) the number of bugs in the beta is under control an announcement will be made here. python3 is and has been well-supported for some time now.... Any specific questions are of course always welcome - regardless of forum... Max On Tuesday, August 24, 2021, 1:15:30 PM EDT, op25@zellners.com op25@zellners.com wrote:

I don't really want to get into an argument here, but, seriously; do you realise how selfish this sounds? Evidently the op25 community has congregated on the RR forum, but you say that you refuse to go there, for some unexplained reason, so you want to waste people's time answering questions based on your knowledge that's probably a year or more out of date, where you could just get over your apparent pettiness and read the forum that probably has the answers.

We currently have an (unreleased, in-house, with-issues) OP25 build that is targeted for GNU Radio 3.9 / 3.10. The current released version supports GR 3.7 and 3.8, Ubuntu 16.04, 18.04, and 20.04, as well as the R PI (both 3B and 4 have success reports).
Inasmuch as the stock version of GR that Ubuntu 20.04 installs is still on GR 3.8, we feel the demand for GR 3.9 (and successor GR versions) may not have reached anywhere near critical mass yet. Could certainly be wrong, but I haven't seen anyone make a good case why OP25-GR 3.9 and/or 3.10 is *necessary* at this time... Max
