Hello, bare with me, as I am new to GNU radio. I've pored over a lot of the docs and have a couple of questions.

2) This is more indiciative of my lack of RF knowledge (working on fixing that), so if you have a resource that answers this, please give. Is there a GNU radio app that let's you grab as many radio stations as possible? Not necessarily to even listen to at that time, but perhaps to grab as many as possible and then decode them after the fact so that you could listen to them later or something (my goal is to get a corpus of radio broadcasts, but I think this could be useful for other reasons to). If this hasn't been implemented, is it feasible?

Thanks for your time

For the second question - depending on what you want to do with the
data - probably the easiest thing to do is just dump the RF samples to
file: this is very easy if you have a USRP or USRP2 - just use the
supplied usrp_rx_cfile.py or usrp2_rx_cfile.py commands. You can then
process the data offline using GNURadio (or GRC to make things even
easier) and a file source block, or even pull it into Matlab to look at
if that's your thing.
