    Got my SDR Kit, now what?

    in SDR - Software Defined Radio

    Posted · Edited by TN.Frank

    looked for it without sudo and got the same error, added sudo and got this:

    Found 1 device(s):

    0: Realtek, RTL2838UHIDIR, SN: 00000001

    Using device 0: Generic RTL2832U OEM

    Found Rafael Micro R820T tuner

    Supported gain values (29): 0.0 0.9 1.4 2.7 3.7 7.7 8.7 12.5 14.4 15.7 16.6 19.7 20.7 22.9 25.4 28.0 29.7 32.8 33.8 36.4 37.2 38.6 40.2 42.1 43.4 43.9 44.5 48.0 49.6

    Sampling at 2048000 S/s.

    No E4000 tuner found, aborting.

    Surely the dongle we get in the kit will have the E4000 chip set. I'm sure they'd know at the Hak House that the E4000 is THE chip set we'd need. OR is there some kind of Driver I need for the E4000 to get it up and running?

    Ok, just did it in normal Terminal and got this:

    -- Build type not specified: defaulting to release.

    -- Extracting version information from git describe...

    -- Building with kernel driver detaching disabled, use -DDETACH_KERNEL_DRIVER=ON to enable

    -- Building for version: v0.5.2-23-g2c17 / 0.5git

    -- Using install prefix: /usr/local

    -- Configuring done

    -- Generating done

    -- Build files have been written to: /home/darrell/rtl-sdr/build

    so the rules should be there now, I'll try finding the dongle again.

    Hey, it did find something.

    Found 1 device(s):

    0w0JYvqxvqr, SN: xbw,dxq@rq

    Using device 0: Generic RTL2832U OEM

    usb_open error -3

    Please fix the device permissions, e.g. by installing the udev rules file rtl-sdr.rules

    Failed to open rtlsdr device #0.

    So, how do I get Quisk or CuteSDR to find it?

    P.S.

    Looks like it still needs the udev rules file to work.

    I'm installing sudo apt-get install mono-complete monodevelop(sudo apt-get install libportaudio2 was already installed) to see if that'll give me what I need to get Quisk up and running. If not I'll have to see if I can find a 32bit version of SDR# for Debian to install. Thanks. Keep the info coming, more is always better.

    I'm running Point Linux 2.2 which is pure Debian 7 Stable with a MATE DE. Also, if it's 32bit since I have a Core Duo laptop with a 1.83GHz processor. I have both CuteSDR and Quisk installed. Just wonder if I need to install any Drivers or anything for the dongle?

    Thank You Snubs.

    Just found out that I got my kit today, that was fast, 2 days, wow. Can't wait to hook it up and give it a try.

    I saw some of basically the same kits on Amazon for $10+ shipping but due dates were 17-24 days for delivery, no way I'd wait that long. Also, the HakShop SDR Kit has a nice looking carrying case and you get a Hak5 sticker too, been wanting one of those for my laptop for a while now so that just sweetens the deal IMHO.

    Wow, pretty cool that they'd have SDR with their standard install. I found CuteSDR and Quisk in Synaptic doing an SDR search. I wanted to run Gqrx but had problems installing the tarball so I just went with what I could install from Synaptic and I'm going to use it for now. I can't wait to get the SDR Kit and start playing around with this stuff. I still need to see if I'll need to install any Drivers for the dongle or if they'll already be there from the CuteSDR and Quisk installs. Anyway, pretty cool for Kali.

    Thank You Snubs.

    Watched the latest Hak5 show where Snubs talked about SDR and went a head and ordered a SDR Kit from the HakStore. Can't wait to get it. Already have CuteSDR and Quisk loaded on my Point Linux 2.2 install. Looks like this will be a fun new hobby to get into and who knows what you can listen to. Anyway, glad to see an area were we all can hang out and talk SDR.

    Are we going to get an SDR section?

    After seeing Snubs talk about SDR I took the plunge and ordered the SDR Kit from the HakShop. I've installed CuteSDR and Quisk on my Linux box and can't wait to get the kit so I can start playing around with SDR.

    I just wonder if we'll get a section for SDR here like they have for the Rubber Duck and WiFi Pineapple? I think that'd be great for those of us getting into SDR for the first time and for others who have been into it so we'd have a place to ask questions and talk about SDR.

    So has anyone else given Point Linux a try? Just wonder since it's a totally awesome Linux Distro but no one seems to be posting that they're giving it a try or not. Not like you'd have anything to lose. UNetbootin + Point Linux .iso = Live USB that you can boot to and give it a look. If you like it it's easy enough to install or you can even dual boot with another Distro if you want to keep your current Distro.

    Linux>Mac>Windows, LOL

    I've also loaded up the Compiz packages and now can do some of the cool effects when I open and close windows and when I switch desktops.

    I just figured since Darren was so stoked on Mint MATE that he'd want to give Point Linux a look.

    Why no Spell Check?

    Works fine in my browser. Maybe its your browser, not the forums? See the little switch in top left of post panel. Try toggling it, see if that makes a difference, but I don't use FF, and have no issues with spell check, cut, copy, paste, etc.

    Ahh, ok now it works fine. Just had to toggle the little switch, LOL. I knew my browser was working ok because I've used spell check on many other forums and never had an issue. Also, now the "paste" function shows up as well. I knew it wasn't me. Thanks.
