Yes, can confirm Steve's comment, with -t that's the expected result.
I also get the "PLL not locked!" error message on my RTL-SDR (different PID), but flowgraphs still work fine in GNURadio / Win10.

Is it possible RTL_TEST is looking for a E4000 because of it's dongle's screwy PID, even though it sees a R820T. If not, why is it not working? thanks.

Usage: [-s samplerate (default: 2048000 Hz)] [-d device_index (default: 0)] [-t enable Elonics E4000 tuner benchmark]
As you can see, -t only works with E4000 tuners, and is meant to determine the size of the L-Band gap this tuner has. The R820T2 you have doesn't have an L-Band gap, thus there is nothing to benchmark.
