Hi - There is an overlap in register definitions that prevents using the 8th receiver on OpenHPSDR systems. So the limit is 7 receivers.

Does the gr-hpsdr with RedPitaya SDR support 7 or is also capable of 8 receivers?

I do not think that there is an overlap.
The idea for the 8th receiver comes from HermesIntf.
The receiver compatible with HPSDR for the Red Pitaya board uses same code/address for the 8th receiver as used in HermesIntf.
The code/address used for the 8th receiver is
C0
0 0 1 0 0 1 0 x C1, C2, C3, C4 NCO Frequency in Hz for Receiver 8
The last code/address described in the HPDSR protocol documentation is
C0
0 0 1 0 0 0 1 x
Thus, the code used for the 8th receiver is outside the range of codes/addresses described in the HPDSR protocol documentation.
HI Pavel - nice to meet you (virtually).
The latest version of the HPSDR - USB Data Protocol document I could find is V 1.60. This defines the address for Receiver 7 as C0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 x which is different from what you have listed.
I am guessing that there is probably some new document that defines changes to the protocol. I do not have that document, and don't even know what it would be called.
Is it possible for you to send me that document?

Sorry for the wrong receiver number in my previous comment. It is receiver 8 of course. I just corrected it in my previous comment.
I was looking at version 1.58 (USB_protocol_V1.58.doc). This was the latest version that was available when I was playing around with the HPSDR protocol.
I see that there is now version 1.60 and it has a new not very well documented command that indeed has the same code/address as the code/address used by HermesIntf for the 8th receiver.
There are still a lot of unused codes/addresses. Is there a code/address you would prefer to use for the 8th receiver? I can easily add this code/address to my application for the Red Pitaya board.
Thank you for the information, Pavel. I don't see a need to change the C0 address of Rx_8 at this time. This task will take some time to complete as it is queued behind 3 others (one of which is quite large).
I'm using RedPitaya SDR in HPSDR receiver mode with CW Skimmer Server - it supports up to 8 receivers no problem.
