This is the client log:

Okt 03 22:18:42 satnogs satnogs-client[345]: Using images directory:
Okt 03 22:18:42 satnogs satnogs-client[345]: Set the environment variable âUHD_IMAGES_DIRâ appropriately or follow the below instructions to download the images package.
Okt 03 22:18:42 satnogs satnogs-client[345]: Please run:
Okt 03 22:18:42 satnogs satnogs-client[345]: â/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/uhd/utils/uhd_images_downloader.pyâ
The usrp images are located in /usr/share/uhd/images. I did set the UHD_IMAGES_DIR variable âexport UHD_IMAGES_DIR=/usr/share/uhd/imagesâ in .profile and printenv result is âUHD_IMAGES_DIR=/usr/share/uhd/imagesâ
I tried to run a script manually:
satnogs_afsk1200_ax25.py --soapy-rx-device=âdriver=uhdâ --antenna=TX/RX --samp-rate-rx=2e6 --rx-freq=145950000 --file-path=./audio-out.ogg --waterfall-file-path=./waterfall.dat
That works, the firmware images loads into the B210, the green led lights up, after ctrl-c the files audio-out.ogg & waterfall.dat are there.
I tried âsudo satnogs_afsk1200_ax25.py âŚâ and get the same EnvironmentError like satnogs-client.
I could not find any useful hint with the big search engine. Running out of ideas now.
Your hint definately changed something. The [B200] environment error is gone. But it seems that no one tries to load the B200 firmware and the rx led stays off now.
Ok, after successful observations with the rtlsdr I tried the Ettus B210 again. I donât know why, but now SatnogsClient can access the B210 (green led on). But the spectrum shown on satnogs-monitor does barely show noise (random dots or squares) and the waterfall shows only violett horizontal lines.
Thatâs a problem for wednesday. Good night!
Edit: The observation https://network.satnogs.org/observations/2954709/ shows cw signals - Who was that? - and data packets on the waterfall. The keying is audible in the fm demodulated audio file.
