Download !!EXCLUSIVE!! Gnu Radio Companion For Windows
Marion Loyd
Problem: the version between the two different GNURadio companions was different. My windows machine was running the v8.0.0 Beta and the Linux machine was running v3.7.13.5. The Beta v8.0.0 is the first version to output .grc files in the format above (still unsure on what that is called), while 3.7.13.5 and earlier output .grc files in an xml format.
Powershell scripts are now available at _windows_build_scripts that fully automate the build process for GNURadio 3.7.9.2+. A few build dependencies are required (MSVC 2015, Git, Doxygen, CMake, Perl, Wix) but all are free. The script has two options:
MinGW ( ) provides GNU compilers and Window-specific header files for compiling native Windows applications.
MSYS ( ) is a companion set of Linux-like commands, shell, and build tools.
MinGW does not include a Linux programming interface; programs should be smaller and faster than with Cygwin (in theory), but will require more Windows-specific code.
MSYS is intended primarily as a build environment, making it more compact than Cygwin.
Now you need to install a source which has the recipes for gnuradio and dependents. The easiest method is to clone the chocolatey-packages from the github repository listed above ( -packages), then add the local source from within an Administrative command line session:
With zadig I set the driver of my hackrf one to WinUSB (v6.1.7600.16385) and it works with software like "Universal Radio Hacker" and "SDRSharp" but I can't get it to work with gnu radion companion.
OpenTX is open source firmware for RC radio transmitters. The firmware is highly configurable and brings much more features than found in traditional radios. The daily feedback from the thousands of users ensures the continued stability and quality of the firmware.
Read more about which radios are supported.
The team also develops the OpenTX Companion transmitter support software. OpenTX Companion is used for many different tasks like loading OpenTX firmware to the radio, backing up model settings, editing settings and running radio simulators.
OpenTX Companion is available for Windows, Apple OSX and Linux.
There are two applications available for creating and managing the soundfiles used by OpenTX.
OpenTX Speaker is used to generate voice files for OpenTX by using synthetic speech. OpenTX Recorder is used to record voice files via a microphone.
Both programs can generate sound files for all OpenTX voice languages. Every radio message, including system messages, can be changed.
OpenTX Speaker and OpenTXRecorder are available for Windows7.
The first step to upgrade your radio with the latest OpenTX version is to install OpenTX Companion on your computer.
Then you select the firmware configuration you want and let OpenTX Companion download and install it to your radio.
You can find the latest OpenTX Companion versions in Downloads.Since 2.2 the changelogs for each release are in the news posts below.
GNU radio is a popular environment for teachers and developers involved in Digital Signal Processing and exploring new radio architectures. For receiver applications, the low cost dongle is a popular hardware choice, but if you need reliable, clean, continuous radio signal reception from 1kHz to 2 GHz (without the need for block converters or external filters) then an SDRplay RSP is a useful alternative.
If we don't specify the device index number, GRC may not work. The earlier release of v3.7.13.4 outputs error messages for that case but v3.7.13.5 doesn't. The windows build v3.7.13.5 may not be buggy but does not provide adequate messages.
That then allowed the gnu radio companion of 3.7.13.5 to start up without a hiccup at all. Getting no more of those 'already exist' warnings upon startup. All good now. I'm running Windows 8.1 64-bit.
Earlier today, I installed (GR 3.8.1.0 py2.7), which was a total fail. The radio companion window was able to start. But the DOS window indicated some components couldn't be found - and also python 2.7 crash message came up after hitting the 'play' (simulate) button.
