DO THE BUILD (below) Installing newer v. of gqrx on ubuntu: Remove previous versions:
- sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove gqrx
- sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove gqrx-sdr
- sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove libgnuradio*
Install libvolk1 binaries to optimize GNU Radio performance
- sudo apt-get install libvolk1-bin
- volk_profile
building gqrx: I THINK I DID THIS it shows version 2.14.3 sudo apt install git libqt5svg5-dev qtbase5-dev build-essential cmake gnuradio-dev gr-osmosdr portaudio19-dev liborc-0.4-dev libpulse-dev
git clone https://github.com/csete/gqrx.git gqrx.git && cd gqrx.git
