Hi Manu, What is your output power requirement? Frequency coverage? Do you have a target price? Do you have LO phase coherency requirements? Support for nuand's bladeRF was just recently pushed to gr-osmosdr for both GNU Radio 3.6 and 3.7. The output power is 6dBm CW, so with some backoff

Hello, For just teaching even a speaker and microphone work well to add real world effects like AWGN, echos, delays, and Doppler effects on communication channels. Does everyone need a transmitter? Over here we have just one USRP and a whole lot of RTLSDR's so everyone can practice receiving and

Hello everyone, A professor in my university wants to revive lab course on communication. He wants to introduce some experiments involving SDR. For that we need about 100 pieces of hardware( both receiver and transmitter). Buying 100 USRP is not a viable solution for us. We can go for RTL SDR but
