I found following these videos through was a good intro: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BeeSN14JUYU&pp=ygUII2hhY2tyZmY...

There were a few things in GNU radio which have changed since then (different block names) but with a bit of googling you can figure out how to work around it.

Unfortunately for me, SDR is too much like $dayjob so I lost interest. I already spend 8 hours a day at a computer I cannot be convinced to spend more time at a computer doing SDR as I would much rather being doing stuff outside.



Do SDR stuff outside! Seriously though, I know for ham radio stuff at least, a lot of it can be outside if you want.


For ham radio I can see it, but SDR stuff is fundamentally programming and for me the majority of time was doing programming like tasks and not actually doing stuff with the finished code.

Ham radio on the other hand is like an appliance and so there isn’t any programming necessary.
