• Soapy SDR plugin for AirspyHF+

** This branch (v2)

This branch is work in progress.

The code is significantly simpler than the previous version and most likely it has better performance. Quite a few bugs have been fixed, and some new ones have probably been introduced. Please help me find them! :-)

I have tested this with GQRX and OpenWebRX with good results.

** Building

Make sure you have SoapySDR and =libfmt-dev= installed.

To build and also create compile_commands.json:

+begin_src bash

mkdir build cd build cmake .. make sudo make install

+end_src

You can get a lot of debug information by setting:

+begin_src bash

export SOAPY_SDR_LOG_LEVEL=7

Before you start i.e gqrz

gqrx

+end_src

** Using

Use this Device string in GQRX:

=soapy=0,driver=airspyhf=

** Code style

Code style is llvm. There's a .clang-format file checked in.

** Testing

I mostly test with GQRX. Please report if you use it with other SDR software.

Tested with this version of SoapySDR:

Lib Version: v0.8.1-gbb33b2d2
API Version: v0.8.200
ABI Version: v0.8-3

** TODO

• More testing.
• More linting.
• CI/CD.

** Support me
