Hello, Im using an airspy mini through the osmosdr block. I would like control over the 3 gains the airspy has (IF, Mixer, LNA) but the osmossdr block does not seem to expose this. Is there a workaround? Cheers Dirk ___ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Di

Fist of all, while Im a newbie to (gnu)radio, congrats to the dev team for a great piece of software. My question is about the need to detect a weak, noisy, short (10ms) pulse that occurs every 1.5 seconds. It is transmitted at a particular frequency (e.g., 150.22 MHz) but in practise I have found
