With next year's termination of support for Windows 10, and that Windows 11 won't work on my existing PCs, I'm look at migrating to full Ubuntu Linux--no virtual box, no side-by-side with Windows, just pure Linux. Before experimenting, has anyone installed or attempted to install ProScan and/or...

Recording is continuously enabled on my sds200. The microSD card will eventually overflow without directory management. One user in this forum described the radio locking up and displaying, "SD Card Full". Others have described the process of removing the microSD card from the radio and using a...

The key is using Winapps. There's already a tutorial on setting it up, so I refer you to it. Once you have everything running, install the Uniden software. The virtual machine window has a menu option Redirect USB Device. Be sure to select your Uniden scanner so that Windows will see it...

Hi, attempting to switch to LINUX and wondering if anybody is successful running PS on LINUX. There is an instruction here in the WIKI that I read, I had to install WINE and MONO, did COM port settings etc. Installed PS as successully as it seems. When starting HDD activity shows something but...

Hi everyone. The 125AT was/is my first scanner, and I've fallen in love with it. I found there's no easy way to program its settings or channels on Linux. There's bc125at-perl, but it's finicky at best. So, I present to you: bc125py! It's written in python, and can read and write to/from your...

Gqrx is a wonderful program for SDRs on Linux. If you have it installed already and have bookmarks of frequencies you have tagged as something like Aircraft, EMS, Marine, etc., you can turn Gqrx into a scanner with gqrx-scan (Khaytsus / gqrx-scan · GitLab). BUT... how do you set it up to where...

This is somewhat complex but may help others who are considering doing same: I have an i7-3770S-based "signage" PC (Shuttle DS61) that I installed the latest Linux Mint 19.x on. It also has VirtualBox and a number of VMs which are used to run various scanner control software packages. The PC...

Good day everyone. First off I would like to thank this excellent community for all the help they offer people. I would like to also thank all the open source developers in regards to SDR and GR. I have a question for the community and hopefully someone out there may have an answer. I have...

Need help.....I am using my Linux (MX Linux) computer. I installed WINE. I also downloaded the Windows program "Freescan" so I can program my scanner. I unzipped the file, and can't get WINE to cooperate.....I keep getting errors: Unhandled Exception: System.TypeLoadException: Could not load...

I would like to change my OP25 whitelist based on the time of day. I'm running a single instance of OP25 in terminal mode launched with the command line: ./rx.py --args 'rtl' -N 'LNA:47' -S 1000000 -o 25000 -T trunk.tsv -V -w -2 -U 2>stderr.2 --crypt-behavior 2 In the evenings, I change my...

Hi All, My friends and I have been working on some software to control recent Icom transceivers. The software is called "wfview". We have noticed that the IC-R8600 seems to have a similar network (ethernet) protocol to the IC-9700, IC-7850, and IC-705, but to date we have yet to actually test...

Been running Linux for the last ten years. Holds my network together... Excited to find out that there is a ProScan installation under wine but the problem is it will cough up and ask for a 32bit prefix and never run or it will run like clockwork and refuse to release COM's - 'the COM port is...

Hello, I've successfully been using the public release of DSD+ on Linux with Wine and external audio input from PulseAudio Virtual Sinks but after upgrading to the fast lane version noticed many new improvements when running FMP instead of an external audio source. I'm wondering if anyone has...

I hope this helps anyone else that runs into the same problem. This fixed the micro fonts I was only getting with SDRTrunk on my Linux Mint 20 Cinnamon desktop on my MacBook Pro Retina display. This did not appear to affect any other apps. GDK_SCALE=2 ./SDRTrunk/bin/sdr-trunk

Ever wanted to know ALL the frequencies used as control channels on the 1FC system, in numerical order (according to the RR database)? Run the command below on a linux system in your favorite terminal emulator and it will spit out the info with the total control channel count at the end of the...

I am looking for a linux based Motorola Smart Zone II decoder compatible to RTL-SDR dongles. I have 3 of them. I tried SDRTrunk but it won't do it. I can't run a virtual box it'll be top much on my laptop. Windows has a few but anything that looks like a 'penguin', or linux, doesn't have one but...

SDRplay have released a video showing how to get started with the non windows work flow for RSP receivers. The video is a step-by-step guide to the installation process for people using non-windows platforms such as Linux or Raspberry Pi and who want to build their own configuration (i.e. not...

SDRplay have released updated software support for the RSP1, RSP1A, RSP2, RSP2pro and the new RSPduo for multiple platforms. As part of our plans to increase the software support for the RSPduo, we have updated 2 key libraries to enable single tuner mode functionality using API 2.13 on all...

Putting this question out there to see if anyone has had similar thoughts. I have OP25 successfully running on a dedicated xUbuntu machine and have explored it thoroughly. But I was wondering if implementing talkgroup priorities would be possible. I imagine this would be implemented in...

From searching I know this topic comes up often, but i'm stuck. I've managed to install Unitrunker on Linux via WINE, but when trying to run the software I get the winusb.dll is missing error. I installed winusb.dll from my Win10 PC into WINE's windows/system32 folder, but I continue to get the...
