I’m looking to put together a dedicated SDR streaming box using a Pi3 and RTL-SDR so I can keep my SDS200 free for other things.
There are 4 different departments on two different P25 simulcast systems, plus a separate single frequency NXDN system that I plan to stream.
I’m not operationally familiar with OP25 or SDRTrunk. Would either work for this application? Is there a better option? What is the learning curve to install & configure?

Thanks in advance.

It's due for an update, but Lindsay just posted that he's looking at getting back to this project but there is a Broadcastify specific Raspberry Pi software image. More info here:

My suggestion would be to start with only one dept/system/stick and figure that out before trying multiples. As far as learning curve, they are all challenging but I feel SDRTrunk is a little less than the others. It allows you to import settings from RadioReference rather than requiring json formatted configuration files. Multiple sticks on a pi3 may be asking a lot of it. I have had early successes using an Inovato Quadra with SDRtrunk.

i have not had good experiences with the BCFY feed appliance image for a pi.
