AirSpy ======
A tiny and efficient software defined radio.
This repository contains host software (Linux/Windows) for AirSpy, a project to produce a low cost, open source software radio platform.
AirSpy: http://www.airspy.com
How to build host software on Windows:
For VisualStudio 2013 or later:
- git clone https://github.com/airspy/airspyonehost.git host
- Download https://github.com/libusb/libusb/releases/download/v1.0.20/libusb-1.0.20.7z
- Extract libusb-1.0.20.7z to host directory
- You should have host\libusb-1.0.20
- Inside this directory there is README.txt, libusb-1.0.def and some directories
- Download ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/pthreads-win32/pthreads-w32-2-9-1-release.zip
- Extract pthreads-w32-2-9-1-release.zip to host directory
- You should have host\libpthread-2-9-1-win
- Inside this directory there is lot of README files and some directories (dll, include, lib)
- Launch host\libairspy\vc\airspy2013.sln with VisualStudio 2013, choose Release and Build Solution
Windows MSYS2/mingw64
- Install MSYS2/mingw64 from https://www.msys2.org
- Start mingw64 console
- pacman -Syu
- pacman -S git mingw-w64-x8664-make mingw-w64-x8664-pkgconf mingw-w64-x8664-gcc mingw-w64-x8664-libusb
- For Windows OS less than Vista Install Windows driver for AirSpy hardware or use Zadig see http://sourceforge.net/projects/libwdi/files/zadig
- If you want to use Zadig select AirSpy USB device and just install/replace it with WinUSB driver.
Note for Windows build: You shall always execute airspytools from Windows command shell and not from Cygwin or Mingw shell because on Cygwin/Mingw Ctrl C is not managed correctly and especially for airspyrx the Ctrl C(abort) will not stop correctly and will corrupt the file.
