FM Radio stations - Reception

  • Requires GNURadio
  • Requires either an extra antenna or pressing a finger on the upper right corner where the antenna is usually soldered (then you are a human antenna ;-) )
  • Example Script: FM Radio Example (must be opened with GNU Radio Companion)
  • The script can be started via the arrow in the middle of the menu
  • Depending on your SoundCard and your CPU you may vary the parameters for samp_rate (eg. decreasing to 2M) and audio_samp_rate(eg. increasing to 96k)
  • The Frequency can be adjusted via the FFT Plot that opens when the script is started

FM Radio stations - Broadcast

  • Can be illegal depending on which frequency you broadcast: check the local laws
  • Requires GNURadio
  • Requires either an extra antenna or pressing a finger on the upper right corner where the antenna is usually soldered (then you are a human antenna ;-) )
  • Example Script: FM Broadcast Example (must be opened with GNU Radio Companion)
  • The script can be started via the arrow in the middle of the menu
  • It uses a fifo (create it with mkfifo and change the File Source box in GNU Radio Companion accordingly). You can feed it with mp3 by executing, for example: mpg123 -r41000 -s foo.mp3 > /path/to/input_fifo. You can change the broadcast frequency by modifying the osmocom Sink configuration in GNU Radio Companion.
