Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Using rtl-sdr dongle with grc on Windows 10

[Geof Nieboer]

You probably need to run zadig.exe to get the right driver loaded... see (https://www.rtl-sdr.com/getting-the-rtl-sdr-to-work-on-windows-10/).  I believe a copy of zadig.exe should be in the ./gnuradio-3.7/bin directory.

Have you used the rtl-sdr dongle with any other windows applications?  

If not, I would try to get it running in gqrx that came bundled with gnuradio.  That will rule out if it's your gnuradio setup or a driver issue.

If it works in gqrx, then which source block are you using and what parameters have you provided to the source block?

I suspect it's the driver issue which is easily sorted with zadig (and should only need to be done once).

I need help in using rtl-sdr dongle with grc. 

I loaded gnuradio on Windows 10 os with binary packages and it is working well.

I trying to use rtl-sdr dongle as source in spectrum monitor setup in grc. Flow graph is not detecting output from rtl-sdr, where as it is working with Ubuntu 16.04 os on another laptop.

Are there any configuration requirements as in blacklist file in case of Ubuntu os? If so how to setup the requirement?
