LimeSDR and YateBTS
« on: February 21, 2019, 09:54:15 PM »
So I have installed Yate & Yate BTS & libusb
Im trying to connect the LimeSDR with yateBTS using USRP or UHD. When I do all the "test" my system sees my lime as a USRP and UHD. When I start yate I get the following:


Release 6.1.1 formal build date Feb 20 2019 rev668

how do I get yatebts to see the LimeSDR as either USRP or UHD?

Thank you

Hi,
I have the same problem:

uhd_find_devices and SoapySDRUtil --probe=“driver=lime” does find the device but when I start yatebts it doesn't.
I selected transceiver-uhd as transceiver... Anyone here who got yate & limesdr working together?
