+<note important>We suspect there is a bug in airspy_rx with sample format 0. After several minutes, it sends us a NaN. The workaround (if you want to use Airspy) is to use osmosdr-input from [[:user:jenda:kukuruku]].</note>

 Run it and use gethisto FCL command (echo gethisto | nc localhost 3333) to get sane gain settings.
-Use getpwr command to get channel power and sort the results (echo getpwr | nc localhost 3333 | sort -nk 2). A better approach would be to oversample the spectrum reading by 4 and take only the 2 middle bins.
+You can use this oneliner to get the list of 20 strongest channels:
+<code>
+echo getpwr 3 | nc localhost 3333 | while read line; do n=`echo $line | cut -d " " -f 1`; if [ $(( ( $n - 1 ) % 3 )) -eq 0 ]; then echo $(( ($n - 1) / 3)) `echo $line | cut -d " " -f 2`; fi;done | LANG=C sort -nk 2 | tail -n 20 | cut -d " " -f 1 | tr "\n" ,
+</code>
 Edit enabled channels in tetra-run.sh so they match your channels with the strongest power. Do not enable more than 30 channels per SDR (or change the offset in tetra2.py:128).
