 +   * Example Script: [[http://​sprunge.us/​agBZ|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.
