Hi there,

AFAIK, the OP25 components do not show up in GRC.  As you've found, gr-baz includes an OP25 block for GRC that encapsulates OP25 functionality.  Balint also provided an example flowgraph that uses it, so you generally just need to tweak the frequency. 

I'm having difficulty successfully decoding P25 with my RTL2832, so I'm very interested in your results.  If you get no audio output whatsoever, take a look at the 'not quite' thread in here as well.  I modified data_unit.cc to force all frames to be detected as LDU1 (voice), which is 100% broken, but I do get chunks of audio.

I also ran into the same issue with compilation.  If you punch 'op25_imbe_frame.h' into the search function in this group you'll find a couple threads with fixes.

Last but not least, there is a discussion today on the rtlsdr subreddit about sampling rates.  In short, ensure that your sampling rate is an even divisor of 28.8, such as 2.4 or 1.8msps, or you may get some artifacts in the signal.

Good luck!
