Hi,
I have been interested in trying out Osmocom-analog's AMPS implementation. I purchased an Ettus B210 clone device and built osmocom-analog from source as described on osmocom-analog.eversberg.eu.
Everything went well until I started the program and tried to transmit, I received no Tx (output) and the built-in graphs and visualizers had strange output unlike what was expected: https://imgur.com/a/Ghr1cju. I used Ubuntu 22.04 and UHD driver 4.7.0.
I am truly at a loss at what is causing the strange output, I also tried launching with soapy and several other arguments. Additionally, the LimeSDR Mini V2 I had previously acted the same way as well, so I'm unsure what the problem is. Any advice will be appreciated, and more information can be provided. Thank you.
