Hi,
When having a look at
http://discourse.criticalengineering.org/t/howto-gsm-base-station-with-the-b
eaglebone-black-debian-gnu-linux-and-a-usrp/56
I wonder if there is a way to use the osmo-trx with rangenetworks RAD1/SDR1
radio. I do not yet own an Ettus B210, so it would be fun using the
BeagleBone with the RAD1/SDR1, what is some shrinked and at the same time
extended USRP1 radio.
Ralph.

You would need to use the RAD1 transceiver. The socket API of osmo-trx
is identical to that of the RAD1 host code, but the internal
implementation has clearly diverged. I would not expect to see RAD1
support in osmo-trx anytime soon.

We at Berkeley tried this a few months ago (Range was kind enough to help
us fab RAD1s in support for a Filipino project). Made some progress, but we
never got it working. So it definitely doesn't work out of the box.

Can you clarify what was tried?
Are we talking about TransceiverRAD1 with Osmocom stack? OpenBTS-RAD1
on Beagleboard? RAD1 with OsmoTRX? or something else?

RAD1, using modified TransceiverRAD1, with OsmoTRX.

To be clear, I think it was a tractable problem, our use case for it just
fell through. I'd be happy to share what it took to build and run (I think
I saw beacon but couldn't receive) but I can't seem to find the repo right
now...

Since OsmoTRX and TransceiverRAD1 serve the same role, I assume you
mean TransceiverRAD1 with osmo-bts-trx.
That said, the current module naming not exactly the most intuitive.

Yes! That's exactly what I mean. Sorry about that.
