Hello Gary, 1. First of all, thanks for your help. The Problem was with RF Settings: AGC should be disabled and Antenna Rx2 Should be selected instead of Tx/Rx! After these corrections I was able to listen to FM clearly without any trouble! Anyhow, I will try out your suggestions too!
2. Currently I am having GNU radio 3.8.1.0, but there are some grc blocks missing such as soapy or RTL-SDR which I also need to program RTL-SDR Dongle, therefore I would like to upgrade the GNU-Radio to newer version. Which version would you suggest? And what is the simple way to achieve it without going through difficult steps? My system config: OS: Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS OS Type: 64-bit RAM: 3.8 GB Processor: Intel Core i5-2450M CPU @2.50GHz x4 UHD version: 3.15.0.0 GNU Radio version: 3.8.1.0 SDR Device: Ettus USRP N320 Looking forward to your kind response :) PS: Thanks to Barry Duggan as well! Regards, Thangz :) -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Discuss-gnuradio <discuss-gnuradio-bounces+thangaraj=komro....@gnu.org> Im Auftrag von Gary Schafer Gesendet: Freitag, 15.

The "a" part of "aU" means the audio card is not getting enough samples. If you run your Gnu Radio graph, is there a line above all of the "aU"s that says something like, "[WARNING] [MULTI_USRP] The hardware does not support the requested RX sample rate:", followed by a couple of lines that say something like, "Target sample rate: 1.920000 MSps, Actual sample rate: 1.923077 MSps"? If so, then your USRP is not able to *exactly* set the sample rate to 1.92 MHz. If you are *not* able to set the sample rate of the USRP to precisely 1.92 MHz, try the following changes to your graph (which looks correct from your image): Sample rate: 2e6 (2 MHz) Rational Resampler Block: - Interpolation: 24 - Decimation: 250 Leave all of the other blocks the same. Long story short: If I'm correct, it's because the USRPs can only pick from a small number of sample rates. For the N320, they start with one of three sample rates (200 MHz, 245.76 MHz, and 250 MHz), then they decimate. The sample rate *must* be one of these values after decimation. Otherwise, the USRP will pick something close. And close is not good enough for our purposes. The above information came from the Ettus website at https://kb.ettus.com/N320/N321. If I'm reading it correctly, it *should* be able to set the sample rate of the N320 to precisely 1.92 MHz. Again, assuming I'm reading it correctly. Finally, I agree completely with Barry that your antenna should be more than adequate for the USRP. Best of luck, and please let us know if you're able to solve this problem. Regards, Gary
