Question Telive/RB3

Hello
Nice post you just kicked in!
May I ask you .... why does the double-spectrum screen just pops up and the dissapears in my set up? I'm using RB pi3, easy install script (everything ok) and then this happens!!
May it be I'm using pipes instead of UDP?
Any answers are welcome! It seems there are some issues with the audio from RBP3, should I use an external souncard to have audio?
Thanks in advance.

Long time no see all. Doing normal work too ;) So today I set up a RPi3 with DVB-T2 dongle. I already knew my old dongle was a bit flacky some would say I might have destroyed it by static electricity. Using my custom gnublock code I am able to tune into three channels on a RaspberryPi3 and have some headroom left. I still see improvements possible but I just want to let you know that for a few bucks you can run the code and do more than before.

If anyone has used the alternative Tetra decoding implementations, I am also interested to read about it.

Hi skinkie, you con share your gnublock or teach how to modify the included on telive low block?? I wear a month on trying, but I can not get two channels on the raspberry pi 3 and you have 3!! Nowadays i get two chanels working whit around a 40% of processor charge, but lots of stutter on sound. Stutter only disappear with single chanel decoding (around 34% of processor charge)
Thank you in advance

Have you read blog.opentetra.nl? Specifically on the compilation instructions and volk_profile?

Thanks for the link. Not used the volk profile because sq5bpf says on page 69 of this thread:
"also beware NOT to run volk_profile , and erase ~/.volk/volk_config if you did. for some reason optimisation doesn't work on this raspberry"

I'm trying to re-installing all using the opentetra blog instructions and post here the results.

Very interesting claim. I am running with volk_profile, physically in one location I have very good reception. In my second I can't tune the thing unto the signal, but I doubt that has anything to do to volk_profile.

What I did figure out. A RPi3 at this performance really needs the stock 2.5A power supply. Don't replace it with cheap stuff.

I wouldn't use 'wav' files for it. But yes you can, directly with gnuradio. It might be as easy as piping the output to a file instead of the tetra decoder.

hello everyone, i have made a summary of my commands for linux in a .doc here for download...

first download kali linux 64 bit ISO on internet or 32 bit?

use cdburnerxp to burn the ISO file on a dvd.

make the kali installation on your laptop or desktop.... from boot....

startup kali and give all the command like in the .doc telive tetra gnuradio-companion sq5bpf

all is done in the "terminal" kali linux , be sure to type everything right -./ etc....and enter....

ALL the commands are correct . it is working exellent here. for unencrypted tetra

thanks for sq5bpf and finding here and there some info on the internet

Can you please help me to know why the decoded voice come clipping like this, i use Telive image with the supplied UDP_Slow example and NooElec 0.5ppm TCXO Dongle, the air encryption is showing 0.

Audio sample:

73,

This is how the encrypted sounds like: https://youtu.be/aMsRWnM1YoY?t=79

I suspect that the problem is in your configuration. The network you are listening to, cannot be encrypted AFAIK because it shows enc=0

I'm sure that something can be make with cubicsdr

I'm sure that something can be make with cubicsdr

Cubicsdr in 0.20 is easy to install on linux. Just copy this link :

https://github.com/cjcliffe/CubicSDR/releases/download/0.2.0/CubicSDR-0.2.0-x86_64.AppImage

make it executable and run

Cubicsdr has an IQ output ready

then it can be send to telive (I suppose)

here is my script

#!/bin/sh
export TETRA_HACK_PORT=7379
export TETRA_HACK_RXID=$1
ulimit -c unlimited
pacat --passthrough -v -d alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo |./osmo-tetra-sq5bpf/src/demod/python/simdemod2.py -o /dev/stdout | ./osmo-tetra-sq5bpf/src/float_to_bits /dev/stdin /dev/stdout | ./osmo-tetra-sq5bpf/src/tetra-rx /dev/stdin

After creating a fifo by mkfifo in.float, I haven't any error but No decode

I suppose , I have to play with pacat parameters (pacat --help)

If this can work (I'm not sure) , Telive could run with airspy and sdrplay witout latency

all ideas are welcome

73,

Hi, I´m following this project since begining (two years ago?) and, sometimes had capture some audio like this, in my region are two different networks, and only in one them SOMETIMES, in random situations, caught audio sound like yours. Always thought it is a fault on the network, by the other hand, i´m runing in VMware, tried with ubuntu, and debian 8, and GNU radio 3.7.5 same thing in any combination
