Hello again,

 

Still trying to make my Hackrf work with gnu-companion but I have stupid question, how does the osmocom source block know that I am using hackrf-one? 

 

 

Regards

Mohammed alkindy

What sample rate are you using?  Overruns are caused by the host system not keeping up with the amount of data being passed to it by the HackRF.  Try reducing the sample rate to see if things improve.

> Hello SDR world, not so nice to start my posting in this mailing list with is kind of post, but when I got introduced to SDR I thought I will spend exciting evening to explore this new interest. But my experience is just ending with allot of OOOOOOOOOOOO or aUaUaUaU !!!! I read allot about what could be the reasons that is either the double clock or my sound card is not able to handle the sampling rates , etc…..but so far not able to solve the challenge. I just got my new MacBook Pro with good configurations and the sound card is configured to handle 44.1Khz. I did upgrade the Hackrf firmware to 2017-02-1 package. I am using gnuradio and my macport should take care of the updating to the latest ver. But again I do not seem to be able to hear even a simple FM station just noisy rains ☹
