Raspberry Pi 4 with Rafael Micro R820T tuner errors

[jerry01]

Howdy folks, I seem to be getting a error then it kills the process any clues?

First observation is that you aren't going to receive anything because the command line options are incorrect.
i. Reducing the sample size (-S 1440000)
ii. Enable the vocoder and audio player (-U)
iii. Get rid of the large offset; it is typically unnecessary with modern dongles. (drop the -o 25000)
iv. Make a basic trunk.tsv containing the control channel freq and add it to the command line (-T trunk.tsv)
v. Redirect the logging to a file (>2 stderr.2)

See what happens when you've made these changes.

FYI, Been reading so I trashed what I had loaded and am loading your code I see in the other post's boatbod!

File "/home/ubuntu/op25/op25/gr-op25_repeater/apps/trunking.py", line 826, in build_config_tsv
nac = int(fields['nac'], 0)
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 0: '"cqpsk"'

Invalid format in the trunk.tsv file. Probably the result of having spaces where tabs should be.
TSV format requires one single tab character to separate each field.

Boatbod, OK fixed the trunk file but it still get a killed on the process:

There's nothing in the log to suggest an error (the ""zero-copy" thing is a warning from the RTL driver). Are you library files up to date?
You might try deleting the ~/op25/build directory and re-running the ~/op25/install.sh script.
