Hi folks,
Acknowledged that this is "not supported", but others appear to have had some success using an RTL-SDR dongle under FoxTelem. With the launch of Huskysat-1, I though I'd give it a try. I'm missing something, but can't find any suggestions.
I have a Raspberry Pi 2B that I've been using as an RTL-SDR server, connecting Gqrx to it over the home network. rtl_tcp is running there, all just fine.
Tried firing up the latest FoxTelem, choosing RTL SDR as the source, but the program says it can't find the dongle. "Insert the device or choose an other source" when I hit Start. Shut down rtl_tcp, of course, so as to not have a fight over access. Tried removing and inserting the dongle. Still no joy.
I expect I'm missing some morsel of driver software or configuration to connect FoxTelem to the RTL-SDR dongle, perhaps something similar to rtl_tcp.
What am I missing?
Thanks,
Greg KO6TH
