After being unsuccesful using my B210 and Airspy I tried a rtlsdr with R820T tuner. SoapySDRUtil --probe show now problems with RTLSDR and Airspy.
Manual receive “satnogs_afsk1200_ax25.py --soapy-rx-device=“driver=rtlsdr” --antenna=RX --samp-rate-rx=2.048e6 --rx-freq=145950000 --file-path=./audio-out.ogg --waterfall-file-path=./waterfall.dat” shows no failures and both audio and waterfall files are generated.
It is more than annoying to wait for more than 10 minutes after any change in configuration to see that it still doesn’t work.
I spent hours in this community and on a search engine to find a solution, but all attempts failed.
