Shells offer a very specific kind of command line, but what we mean in general by that term is an interface where a . . . Read more
The hardware you need (other than the BeagleBone itself) is the RTL2832U based DVB-T (digital TV) USB dongle. See RTL-SDR wiki for a list of supported hardware. I’ve tested the software with dongles based on the Elonics E4000 tuner and also the Rafael Micro R820T tuner. These dongles are available from various . . . Read more
Well, make it work might not be the most accurate term. The Funcube Dongle uses USB audio and HID interfaces; therefore, in theory it works without requiring any device drivers. But we still need an application that can talk to the Funcube Dongle and set the frequency, gain, and whatever other parameters . . . Read more
