SoapySDR support

Open parzivail opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

I'm using SoapySDR with a bladeRF xA4 on Ubuntu and it would be wonderful to be able to specify the source as a SoapySDR device in the goesrecv configuration file.

Right now I'm looking at ways to pipe the IQ data through nanomsg.

From the implementation perspective, SoapySDR should actually be a drop-in replacement for both librtlsdr-dev and the Airspy libraries while also supporting many other SDRs since it's all abstracted through the SoapySDR object.

Is this something you'd be interested in contributing?

I'm not very familiar with programming for SDR devices but I could give it a shot.
