How utilize two boards simultaniously with one RPI for full duplex purpose ?

zbyrek commented 1 year ago

I think that won't be possible, not only because lack of bandwidth, but also, because it is using SMI which is not multiplexed.

See #16 I was able to run 2 instances of GQRX, one to channel S1G, the other to channel HiF and tune them each. I got SMI timeout errors so never actually received anything, but they both were able to connect and tune. Had to reboot the Pi to clear the errors and make anything work again after that attempt.
