realtek rumor
by Mathias Coinchon 26 Jun '13

26 Jun '13

Hello, I heard a rumor from someone from industry that Realtek RTL2832u chip would soon be phased out and replaced by another chip (with lower sensitivity according to my contact). Does anybody has more information about this ? Regards Mathias

Enhancement Request

Background: Suppose you have four dongles. (That's easy for me. I do.) Suppose they all identify as one of two types. (Three of one and one of the other.) Suppose you want to load a specific dongle when you start the program. And you don't want it to matter if you move the dongles around. How do I do that? Welllll, I hacked. Unfortunately rtlsdr.dll does not allow me to do this even if I alter the serial numbers, at least not the way I want. There is a fly in the rtlsdr ointment when fishing for the USB strings for Manufacturer ID, product ID, and serial number. You must formally open the device to read these values. The dongle can only be opened by one opener at a time. Unfortunately SDRSharp is laid out inside such that it searches for dongles whenever you open Config. And any time you open Config you also have a dongle open. So far this is not too bad a problem. If there's a dongle I cannot poll for strings, that's the one I have open. Er, not so fast, Joanne. What if you have two or more copies open? There will be more than one dongle you cannot poll. I had to figure out how I could identify the dongle I have open even if I move dongles. So I dug in and found some things libusb.dll can do. The chief one is get the USB path for the dongle. And it can do that without actually opening the dongle. Now when filling out the dialog if I cannot read strings for a dongle I get the dongle's path from the device list used and by cheating on the device handle rtlsdr.dll hands out for opened dongles I extracted information I needed to get the path that way. If they compare it's obviously my dongle. If they do not compare it's another dongle that is already opened so I don't show it in the list. Request: Please implement two new entry points which expose the libusb_get_port_path functionality, one by index (same as for strings) and one for rtlsdr handle which I finessed to prove the technique above. The libusb_get_device function will take the device handle and spit out the device list entry that matches the handle. Thanks for considering this. {^_^} Joanne/W6MKU

rtl_fm question
by Favati 17 Jun '13

17 Jun '13

Hi! I'm modifying rtl_fm to change frequency and demod based on the date/time. For the frequency i've no problem, but changing the modulation from wfm to any other gives me no outout at all. Which is the best approach to change the demod type in realtime? (whitout shutting down rtl_fm of course!) Many thanks!

e4000 r820t signal output
by Zilvinas, LY2SS 14 Jun '13

14 Jun '13

Hi all ! Please excuse me if this is a bit off topic. Is there any sense to tap the IQ signals from e4k or r820t to the internal or external soundcards. Is it possible at all (with r820t particularly) ? (It could seem like reinventing funcube dongle, bet the performance/price would be still right) Best regards, Zilvinas

I got a quite good (AM/SW)/FM/DAB/DVB-T USB dongle : Mirics FlexiTV MSi3101. http://www.mirics.com http://www.mirics.com/node/31 WFM , DAB/DAB+ DVB-T signals on air well decoded by Mirics software ( FMDABplayer even on slow netBook, while DVB-T needs fast PC) but Windows binary . I noticed basic Linux software at address http://cgit.osmocom.org/libmirisdr/ What the status of this software just now ( june 2013 )? Thanks. Francesco

e4000 r820t signal output
by Jay Salsburg 14 Jun '13

Yes! Tap. The only problem is a sound card can only accommodate 48K - 96K bandwidth, some maybe as wide as 192K. The noise at the center of tuning may wipe out much of this tuning. What is needed is a tunable "Zero IF" double-balanced converter like a SA602(612) or NC1496 on the output of the Tuner chip driven by a very clean VC oscillator, these chips have differential I/Q inputs so the tuner can be used as it was designed and not constrained by that funky 8-bit A to D chip. A 16 bit I/Q sound card conversion of the double-balanced IF tuner output would reveal much the slow 8 bit converter does not, like very good noise cancelation, ultra narrow-band RADAR signals, very high speed frequency hopping, and spread spectrum modulation. I would create such a thing if I were not involved in more profitable ventures.

rtl-tcp-server running on avm-fritzbox
by df8oe＠gmx.de 10 Jun '13

10 Jun '13

I want to use a rtl-dvb-stick connected to a fritz-box-dsl-router via tcp. Software running on the fritzbox is freetz (www.freetz.org) and cpu-architecture is mips. So I created a makefile and compiled the software without errors. But when I start the software (usb-dongle connected) it throws a usb_claim_interface error -5. rtl_test recognizes the type of stick correctly but throws identical error message. So I started rtl_test with strace - here you can find the output: http://www.df8oe.de/output.txt Any tipps for solving the problem are welcome ;) Best regards df8oe
