Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] UHD and GNU Radio on Beaglebone

[Nate Temple]

Hi Usman,

For cross compiling, a good place to start would be to look at how PyBOMBs 
handles the E3xx builds. You may need another SDK for the BBB.

I'd encourage you to check out the specs on the Odroid XU4 SoC board. I haven't 
ran an Odroid with a N210, but with a B205mini, I was able to run at 16 MS/s 
into GQRX without much issue. Using pure UHD it was able to handle 25MS/s with 
minor tweaking. 


Regards,
Nate Temple
