Does anyone tried to use the Cell Broadcast feature in osmo?

Me (and several others from the Osmocom developers) have used it successfully
in the past.  We demonstrated this many years ago at one of the CCC congresses.

We tested it (AFAIK) with nanoBTS and sysmoBTS.

Is there specific SDRs that supports this feature?

As Vadim has already pointed out, it's not a SDR feature.  THe problem is
osmo-bts-trx (used by all SDR hardware). See http://osmocom.org/issues/1617

Unfortunately, the amount of contributions we get towards osmo-bts-trx is
still lower than compared to other BTS models where the respective BTS vendors
(or some large customers) have a more pressing need to have features supported.

See http://osmocom.org/versions/122 for more TOOD items for osmo-bts-trx
compared to other BTS backends.
